Unfortunately, I did have to go through the whole exercise again.  I
think the behavior mentioned above is what you get when some of the
LVs are not assigned a filesystem type -- I must've overlooked that
mistake at the time, but it would have been useful to get some kind of
diagnostic.  I'm now over the first part of the install process (the
part that uses the CD).  I'd like it if all this information could be
used to help improve the usability of the installer somehow.  Who can
make a difference in that and ought to be looking at this thread?
