My progress in deploying an image to a new server has moved on. The autoinstall script can now see my /dev/sda partition. It seems to partition the disk fine but then fails on the pvcreate part. It complains it can't see /dev/sda2, but when I inspect the disk with parted or fdisk I can see it.
Below is the part of the logging where it errors out. Thanks Tony get_arch Partitioning /dev/sda...
