Title:
  priority critical, cannot fully preseed lvm partitioning without
  questions

Status in “debian-installer” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Hi,

  When i try to preseed an lvm partitioning i still get questions when i
  set priority to critical

  When changing the partman pieces with the one from dustin kirkland it
  does work (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Cobbler/Preseed)

  I still get the following 2 questions:

  1. Before the logical volume manager can be configured,......... Write the changes to disks and configure lvm?
  2. If you continue, the changes ...........Write the changes to disks?

  When reinstalling the same machine on the same disk it does not ask
  any questions so make sure to wipe the disk with a bunch of zeros

  I have the following:

  d-i partman-auto/method string lvm
  d-i partman-auto/purge_lvm_from_device boolean true
  d-i partman-lvm/device_remove_lvm boolean true
  d-i partman-lvm/device_remove_lvm_span boolean true
  d-i partman-lvm/confirm boolean true
  d-i partman/confirm_write_new_label boolean true
  d-i partman/choose_partition select Finish partitioning and write changes to disk
  d-i partman/confirm boolean true
  d-i partman-auto/init_automatically_partition select Guided - use entire disk and set up LVM
