Hi,
I've been trying to write a preseed config file from some time. It's
nearly ready. The last obstacle is partitioning. Autoconfig fails in two
places:
- first I have to select and confirm 'Guided - use entire disk and set
up LVM',
- later also 'Finish partitioning and write changes to disk',
It happens despite setting both reply in the config file. Please look at
the partitioning paragraph from my config file below. Any idea what I'm
doing wrong? I compare my file with various availably in internet
receipts and cannot find anything wrong.
Thanks,
Wawrzek
