Okay. I suppose this (powermac lvm for d-i) might not happen by the
time Sarge releases. I'd be happy to take a look at it, but I might
not have the skills and/or time....

Does the Sarge ppc installation manual needs an update for the
powermac exception then?  Should I file a bug against the manual? I
could probably write a patch for the manual (in English) if it was
desired - the source for the manual is in svn on alioth, right?

Thanks,
