Bug Description

Using Ubuntu Server i386 Natty daily (20110120)

Using a preseeded installation, it got stuck, because the installation asks for a partition type.

Find attached logs, screenshot and preseed file.

This bug was fixed in the package partman-partitioning - 79ubuntu1

---------------
partman-partitioning (79ubuntu1) natty; urgency=low

  * Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
    - Make sure to wipe disk label on Sun disks before creating a new one.
    - Depend on ntfs-3g-udeb as well as ntfsprogs-udeb.
    - Add PATH, RAWMINSIZE, RAWPREFSIZE, and RAWMAXSIZE substitutions to
      partman-partitioning/new_size in support of ubiquity's resize widget.
    - Cache calls to tune2fs and ntfsresize, to make navigating through the
      resize UI a little faster.
    - Check that minimum filesystem sizes reported by tune2fs and ntfsresize
      are between the minimum partition size and the current partition size;
      if not, refuse to resize the partition at all.
    - Use the GPT disk label by default on *i386/efi and *amd64/efi
      subarchitectures.
    - Support archdetect being anywhere on PATH.
  * Use 'type' to check for archdetect on PATH, not 'which', which isn't
    available in d-i (LP: #705377).
