Comments/Problems:
Basic CD Netinst (no boot options).
Configured 2 x 120GB HD's the same.
Configured the whole disk for LVM.
Created 1 VG (rootvg).
Created 3 LV's: boot (50M), root (10G), local (100+GB remainder).
Assigned /boot (ext3), / (xfs), and /local (xfs) to each LV
Base install seemed to go until the kernel package, and then I received a sort of
generic error. Checked Console 3, and it couldn't find some packages (awk was
missing, for example).
This is all from memory, unfortunately. I'll be able to get better output and
diags when I am back at the site with the server.
Hopefully, there will be a way for me to update this information.
Thanks,
Sam Howard

We are closing this installation report for one of the following
reasons:
- it was reported with a pre-lenny version of Debian
Installer.
- indications in the installation report give the feeling that
the reported problem waslying in another software, unrelated to
D-I, which we can't easily identify.
- indications in the installation report suggest that it may have been
fixed in a more recent version of a D-I component
- it was successful and we forgot closing it..:-)
- it has no information we consider useful
The D-I team is currently in the process of cleaning out the old spool
of installation reports that haven't bene processed yet.
In case you think that the problem you reported has chances to be
still present, please reiterate your installation test with
a more recent image of D-I, if you're in position of doing this.
You'll find daily builds at
http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer. We recommend you choose
the netboot image, in the "daily builds section", then choose to
install "squeeze" when prompted.
If some problems are found, please report them with a new bug sent
against installation-reports.
Many thanks for your understanding and your help improving Debian,
past and present.
