Comments/Problems:
- Installer should maybe warn someone who's trying to create the boot partition in an LVM-Volume (-> grub can't install in LVM-Volume)
- dmsetup should be installed on the Installation-CD ("Setting up kernel-image-2.6.8-1-386 (2.6.8-10)...Root is on a DM Device, but dmsetup not installed")
