Basic Info
Partman is an incomprehensible automatic partitioning language.
Help Files
These files are in the Debian and Ubuntu packages, and give some explanation
Dissecting a Semi-working configuration
# Automatic software RAID 1 with LVM partitioning d-i partman-auto/method string raid
This sentence makes partman know that it will be making a raid
# Use the first two disks d-i partman-auto/disk string /dev/sda /dev/sdb
after d-i partman-auto/disk you must put the list of hard drives that are going to be used
