Bug#610525: Preseed: Debian Installer hangs during late_command

2011-01-19 Thread Dennis Hoppe 
Package: debian-installer
Version: 20110106+b1
Severity: serious

Hello,

i have added the following lines to my preseed config, because partman
should use a static size for my partitions.

d-i preseed/late_command string \
   in-target lvremove -f /dev/vg0/dummy;

After the installation the dummy partition should be removed, but the
Debian Installer stops working.

The following content is from the syslog and ps.

Preseeding commands that generate output to stdout can break the debconf
protocol. Try adding /dev/null (if it tries to read from stdin, that
could also cause it to hang)

i have had no luck with this little workaround.
