Bug#946682: debian-installer: Discard transmission by LVM

[Frederic MASSOT <frederic@juliana-multimedia.com>]

Package: debian-installer
Severity: wishlist
Tags: d-i

Dear Maintainer,

Following a discussion on the list of Proxmox users, I understood that only LVM Thin transmits discard commands to SSD.

When creating logical volumes with the Debian installer, they are not of the LVM Thin type.

Can you add to the Debian Installer the ability to create logical volume with thin provisioning?


Regards.
