Bug Description

I tried to install LMDE into a HD already partioned with LVM.
I really like LVM and have no plans to stop using it.

Unfortunately, the only method I could use to install Linux Mint Debian Edition was a tutorial posted on forum (http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=141&t=71159) that really remembered me my Gentoo time :)
If you aren`t planning to support it on installer, because most of users won`t need it, maybe you can add some configuration in partition step to manually specify the mount points for each partition, so, for example, I can tell it to use /dev/VG00/root as / and /dev/VG00/home as /home
I think most of users that want to use LVM will be confortable with this approach.

Thanks,
Ronan
