I didn't get fancy with LVM & partman. However fdisk did report on a disk I wasn't expecting it to: sdc I can't quite understand this. The box has three separate hard disks, all of which are in a RAID5 set, set up by the onboard RAID controller It also has a cdrom (/dev/hdc) and a floppy. There is nothing in the logfiles to suggest how sdc was detected. I think this device was recognized after I hotplugged a USB key in, to drag off the logfiles. Could this be a side effect of hotplug rescanning the SCSI bus? For some reason I didn't capture the dmesg output, let me know if you want to see it.
