 describe my all-day experience trying to do LVM partitioning for a
 clean Ubuntu install.  I was asked to post this here by Colin Watson.
 Colin, please let me know if you need more information here.

I asked you to file this as an Ubuntu bug; sorry I didn't get round to
giving you the URL (http://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/). I suspect that not all
of these issues will necessarily apply to Debian, and in general we
don't encourage Ubuntu users to file Debian bugs unless they've actually
reproduced the problem on Debian.

However, I'll reassign to partman-lvm anyway for the time being ...

 ===File /var/log/installer/syslog===
 

You'll need to be root to read that one.

Cheers,

 Colin, please let me know if you need more information here.

 I asked you to file this as an Ubuntu bug; 

Maybe you _meant_ to ask me that, but what you actually wrote was 


  Could you please file this as a bug report in Bugzilla, on the
  component 'partman-lvm'? Please also attach /var/log/syslog,
  /var/log/messages, and /var/log/partman from the installer (once
  you've finished the install, these files live in /var/log/installer/
  instead).

In the absence of specifics (which I requested), I had to assume that
the bug should be filed in the same place as the other bug you
mentioned:

   Mm, yes, definitely some extra validation needed there. This is:
   
 http://bugs.debian.org/254630

So under the circumstances, I did the best I could, really.

 sorry I didn't get round to giving you the URL
 (http://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/). I suspect that not all of these
 issues will necessarily apply to Debian, and in general we don't
 encourage Ubuntu users to file Debian bugs unless they've actually
 reproduced the problem on Debian.

Okay, I can do that.

So do you want me to refile at bugzilla.ubuntu.com ?
