Public bug reported:
partman hangs when partman-basicfilesystems/no_swap is set to true and
no LVM swap partition provided in expert recipe.
* Conditions:
Ubuntu 16.04.3LTS,
Preseed configured with:
d-i partman-basicfilesystems/no_swap boolean true
d-i partman-partitioning/confirm_write_new_label boolean true
d-i partman/choose_partition select finish
d-i partman/confirm boolean true
d-i partman/confirm_nooverwrite boolean true
d-i partman-partitioning/default_label string gpt
d-i partman-auto/disk string /dev/sda
d-i partman-auto/method string lvm
d-i partman-lvm/device_remove_lvm boolean true
d-i partman-md/device_remove_md boolean true
d-i partman-lvm/confirm boolean true
d-i partman-lvm/confirm_nooverwrite boolean true
d-i partman-auto-lvm/new_vg_name string flexflash
d-i partman-auto/choose_recipe select partlayout
d-i partman-auto-lvm/guided_size string max
d-i partman-auto/expert_recipe string \

* Issue
I believe the bug is caused by inverted return boolean in:
/lib/partman/check.d/10check_swap
if ! $swap; then
db_input critical partman-basicfilesystems/no_swap || true
db_go || true
db_get partman-basicfilesystems/no_swap
if [ "$RET" = true ]; then
exit 1
fi
fi
Shouldn't script return 0/true when swap not found but partman-
basicfilesystems/no_swap is set to true?
* Workaround
d-i partman/early_command string sh -c 'sed -i "s^exit 1^exit 0^"
/lib/partman/check.d/10check_swap; echo "exit 1" >>
/lib/partman/check.d/10check_swap'
