Bug#411841: debian-installer: 4th partition cannot be primary

["BOMPARD Aurelien" <aurelien.bompard@c-s.fr>]

Package: debian-installer
Version: 20061102

I'm auto-installing some servers with debian-installer. I'm creating 4
partitions, which all should be primary.

I'm using this config:

d-i partman-auto/expert_recipe string                          \
      boot-root ::                                             \
              4000 10000 4000 linux-swap                       \
                      $primary{ } method{ swap } format{ }     \
              .                                                \
              8000 10000 8000 reiserfs                         \
                      $primary{ } method{ format } format{ }   \
                      use_filesystem{ } filesystem{ reiserfs } \
                      mountpoint{ / }                          \
              .                                                \
              6000 10000 6000 reiserfs                         \
                      $primary{ } method{ format } format{ }   \
                      use_filesystem{ } filesystem{ reiserfs } \
                     mountpoint{ /var/log }                    \
              .                                                \
              6000 10000 100000 reiserfs                       \
                      $primary{ } method{ format } format{ }   \
                      use_filesystem{ } filesystem{ reiserfs } \
                      mountpoint{ /var/backup }                \
              .

But debian-installer creates the last partition as extended. I have to
manually delete it and recrate it as primary.

IMHO, debian-installer should only make the 4th partition extended if
there is a 5th partition

This is on Etch's debian-installer, as of 20061102.
