I wonder if this affects manual partitioning as well, if the user
recreates the same partitioning table. But I am not too sure if there is
a way for me to hook into create partition / commit.
I will play around with it and see what I can come up with.

A small note in the pre seed file, you probably want to add:

It's not a fix for this bug, just a comment.

Upon calling create Volume Group a few checks are done.
One of the check is Volume Group name collision.
This could be valid (duplicate name, pre-seed mistake, etc) or it could be a
zombie Volume Group that got detected on otherwise empty partition.
There is a codepath to remove existing volume
While the bug is displayed in partman-auto-lvm, I believe it could be also
reproduced in the manual partitioning.
Also I'd rather fix the bug where it happens, instead of working around it
higher up in the auto partitioning.

The cause of this (assuming that it's the same bug as I've been tracking
in Debian Squeeze) is that the LVM data is on the disk, but the
partitions are not, so when it tries to look for pre-existing PVs it
finds none. Then it sets up the partitions, and assuming the partitions

I think this should be a lot better in Hardy, but I'd appreciate
testing. (In a manual install it ought to ask you whether you want to
