I found some weirdness when trying to use partman. It seems that a comment in the templates file causes partman/free_space and partman/active_partition to be butted up next to each other when compiled. This causes partman to fail when trying to select free space to partition because partman/free_space never gets loaded into the cdebconf db.
I don't know if this is a m68k problem or what, but a fix is just to
move the comment below the Template: line. See the diff below.
I'd go ahead an apply it, but I have no idea what that does to
translators.
Thanks,
Stephen
