Comments/Problems:
I started the network installer through GRUB in the Amazon Elastic Comptuter
Cloud, and connected to it through a network console launched via preseeding.
I gave a couple of details on my website:
http://charles.plessy.org/Debian/debiâneries/nuage/
While the detection of hard drives apparently went well (see attached
partman log), the partition step fails with the following error.
┌────────────┤ [!!] Partition disks ├─────────────┐
│ │
│ No root file system │
│ No root file system is defined. │
│ │
│ Please correct this from the partitioning menu. │
│ │
│ <Continue> │
│ │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
Despite being in expert mode with ‘low’ Debconf priority, the above is
the only thing I get at the Partition disks step. I need to press Escape
to return to the main menu, as otherwise it loops.
I tried to format the virtual drive on its first partition or without
partitionning, but it did not make a difference.
Do you have any idea ?
By the way, this is the first time I made such an advanced usage of the
installer
and I must say that I am very impressed.
Have a nice day,

Hi,
thank you for submitting installation reports, much appreciated.
I read through all the ("partman" related) bugs mentioned here and am closing
them now as
- they (finally) indicated success and/or
- I know from first hand experience that the functionality is working in
Wheezy and/or
- they only contained very little information and/or
- they were (very) old.
If I've closed a bug incorrectly please do reply or just file a new one -
thats often better, as the bug log will be more clear.
cheers,
Holger
