Skiessiyeah that's what I thought19:37

mario_limonciellevand, is there a second string that needs to be preseeded to make sure partman doesn't touch different drives?  I'm preseeding "d-i partman-auto/disk string /dev/sda", but it's still picking sdb (since it has the biggest free space)21:03
evandodd, my understanding is that should definitely restrict it to sda.  Can you post logs so I can take a look when I get back in tonight?21:11

evandthanks, much appreciated21:11
=== cjwatson_ is now known as cjwatson
mario_limonciellhm well so in mucking through partman-auto code, I see why the disk isn't being used22:24
mario_limonciellyou can only preseed the disk if you also choose a method to run on it22:24
mario_limonciellso if you seed in 'regular', it blows away the whole partition table and uses the given recipe in place22:25
mario_limonciellcjwatson, would you be able to expand display.d/initial_auto to cover this case?22:30
mario_limonciellit looks like if a second paramater can be passed to autopartition it would be willing to do this in the free space22:30
mario_limonciellalternatively, letting init_automatically_partition listen to the disk debconf option would work too23:05
mario_limonciellcjwatson, I suppose you are already away for the holiday weekend :).  Well when you return, I summarized this all in bug 204878.23:15
