Title:
  manual ("something else") live cd partitioner doesn't understand lvm
  properly

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  1. Start ubquity
  2. Go to step 6 of 7 ('Prepare disk space')
  3. Choose 'manually edit partition table' and click 'forward'

  Expected result:
  Physical disks, and lvm vg's are treated as being conceptually 
  the same. Ditto partitions and lvm lv's.

  Actual result:
  lvm lv's are treated as being physical disks.

  The lvm lv's appear in the drop-down list of disks. Selecting one
  shows a fake partition in the partition list, the name of which is the 
  path of the lv with a 1 appended. There is a warning sign beside the
  entry.

  On the page where you choose what partition is mounted where, the lvm
  lv's are completely absent from the drop-down lists.

  This has been tested on dapper live beta1, dapper live beta2, and 
  on an installed dapper system uptodate as of today (2006/05/07).
