Server install fails with LVM and dedicated boot partition

[Heiko]

Binary package hint: debian-installer

A Server install with the final Intrepid Server-AMD64 CD fails.
I created a /boot-partition and the second partition is member of a LVM, the "/"-FS is inside a Logical Volume.

It seems, that the installer does notinstall a boot record on the disk and also the /boot-partition seems empty after the installation. So the Boot fails after install.

With an Alpha5 Intrepid CD and the same settings as above, there is no problem. The boot partition and the grub boot block are installed.

I did not test this with an Beta or RC Disk, so I can not say when this issue appeared.

Now I tried also the Intrepid RC: it shows the same behavior as the final CD. Somewhere between Alpha5 and the RC the installer got this bug.

Could you please attach /var/log/installer/syslog and /var/log/installer/partman from the installed system to this bug, so that I can try to see what went wrong?

Sorry for the long delay.
Now I had the chance to install the server again with the final Ubuntu Server CD, and got the error again. I copied the /var/log/installer directory and attached it here. I hope it will help.

Thanks, setting back to "new".
