Hi guys, I have been using systemimager from CVS (a couple of nights old) for a bit of a play. I've noticed something odd with lvdisplay (used in Common.pm to gather lvm disk info). Basically lvdisplay is reporting the size as twice the value it should be. The output even differs between c

This patch adds the commands to retrieve the lvm group that every partition belongs (if the partition is assigned to an lvm group). Unfortunately I've had to add the $disk argument to the function _print_to_auto_install_conf_file()... I've not found any other way... IMHO it could a good solutio
