Preseed for Wheezy - Sizes, Labels and Logicals



The partman auto instructions say that with partition 'max' parameter
set to 1000000000, all remaining space on the disk will be used.  Then
it says that there is a partition size limit of 1000000000 due to the
32-bit shell integer limitation.

I am installng a 64-bit version.  So, what are the limitations for
64-bit?  I want to set a 16GB partition.  How can I define a 16GB
partition?  How can I allocate the remaining unused space with method{
keep }?

The partman auto instructions say how to label a partitions, but I did
not see a way to label the disk.  Is there a way to label the disk?

The partman auto instructions shows how to define a partition as
primary, but there wasn't a description of how to define logical
partitions.

My intent was to have four primary partitions, each bootable for four
different multi-boots.  How do I associate any one /boot with a / or
other mount point?  After experiementing with this configuration, my
plan is to convert the system to Xen.  There is not intent to multi-boot
with Xen.  Is there any value in this multi-partition setup like this
for VMs?
