Ubuntu Kickstart installation using LVM waits for input

Solution 1
Ok, I found the solution to my problem, you have to use the preseed option to confirm the LVM question. Just add the following line to the Kickstart file.
preseed partman-lvm/confirm_nooverwrite boolean true
Solution 2
In the file ks.cfg
preseed partman-lvm/device_remove_lvm boolean true preseed partman/confirm_write_new_label boolean true preseed partman/confirm boolean true preseed partman/confirm_nooverwrite boolean true

I have a PXE Boot Setup for installing CentOS 5 and Ubuntu 10.04 via Kickstart. I use LVM and installing CentOS without any user interaction works but Ubuntu always asks to "confirm to write changes to disk and configure LVM" during partitioning. If I don't use LVM, Ubuntu will not ask for any confirmation and just partitions the disk.
The part of the kickstart file where I handle the partitions looks like this:
#System bootloader configuration bootloader --location=mbr #Clear the Master Boot Record zerombr yes #Partition clearing information clearpart --all --initlabel #Disk partitioning information part /boot --fstype ext2 --size 200 --asprimary part swap --size 1024 part pv.01 --size 1 --grow volgroup rootvg pv.01 logvol / --fstype ext4 --vgname=rootvg --size=1 --grow --name=rootvol
How can I tell Ubuntu to always accept the settings without selecting "yes" on the screen? Is there something like a
confirm all
option? -
rahul Kushwaha about 4 yearsdoes the location of the placement matters? i have added the command but still getting the confirmation prompt.
