Package: installation-reports Severity: normal Tags: d-i Dear Maintainer,
My computer came with three NTFS partitions, primaries 1-3. During install, I resized partitions 2 and 3, leaving: primary 1 (NTFS) primary 2 (NTFS) empty space primary 3 (NTFS) empty space I went to "Configure Logical Volume Manager", created a volume group, and selected the two empty spaces to go into it. This resulted in a helpful dialog with title "[!!] Partition Disks" and contents "??? ???". After that, things went wrong: some menu options no longer appeared or didn't work. Finally, I went back to the main menu, and when I selected "Partition disks", it just returned me to the main menu. I had to restart. I think the reason is that it is not possible to turn both empty spaces into partitions, due to the limit of 4 primary partitions. But the partitioning tool did not detect this condition gracefully. (I am reporting the bug from a different computer, but I don't think the hardware details matter.) Andrew PS. The ability to mount and examine NTFS partitions in the installer wolud be nice.
