This turns out to be a bug in the confirm_changes function in partman-
base; I dropped the priority of the partman*/confirm_nochanges questions
to medium way back in the hoary cycle for reasons I no longer recall.
These reasons are almost certainly obsolete nowadays anyway, so I'll
revert that
partman-base (90ubuntu7) edgy; urgency=low
* Set the priority of partman*/confirm_nochanges questions back to
critical; having it at medium breaks LVM and RAID configuration (closes:
Malone #63721).

** Changed in:
I can confirm that it works if you do any action to the existing
partition layout, or only a pseudo-action, like changing the usage of
a partition and then change it back. This makes ubuntu at least
installable, to the insiders ..

LVM partitioning does not work with edgy beta alternative
Colin,
i have noticed this too. It seems that neither partman-lvm or partman-
raid can access their submenus if there are no changes to commit on the
disk layout.
It looks to me like the question that ask In order to go further you
need to commit the changes to disk! yes no is doing something
Thanks, I'll try that hint. By the way, the error isn't present in the
dapper alternative CD. Also, what I just tested, it works with recent
debian testing installer discs.
Michael
