Possible to create GPT partition during preseeded install?

2011-04-11 Thread Sander
Hello, I would like to set a gpt label instead of msdos during a preseeded install. I've searched for such a recipe and tried to disect partman, but still end up with a msdos label. What I have now: ### Partitioning d-i partman-basicfilesystems/choose_label string gpt d-i partman-auto/disk string
