I tried testing out the final release of Precise Pangolin, and instead of this issue, I encountered another error with root on LVM, which I have reported as bug #1000770.
I am not sure of a straightforward way to test out the fix in Debian's git tree. I am familiar with using git and compiling software, but am not familiar enough with the installation process to know how to get the dpkg into the installer. Maybe I could pause the installer before partitioning, download an updated dpkg I build, apt-get install it into the running image, then continue with the installation? Any tips are appreciated.
