Also I have more one question
Next raid's partitioning in preseed file like as:

Code:

d-i partman-auto-raid/recipe string \
    1 2 0 ext4 /                                        \
          /dev/sda1#/dev/sdb1                           \
    .                                                   \
    1 2 0 ext4 /home                                    \
          /dev/sda5#/dev/sdb5                           \
    .                                                   \
    1 2 0 ext4 /var                                     \
          /dev/sda6#/dev/sdb6                           \
    .                                                   \
    1 2 0 ext4 /usr                                     \
          /dev/sda7#/dev/sdb7                           \
    .                                                   \
    1 2 0 ext4 /local                                   \
          /dev/sda8#/dev/sdb8                           \
    .

Could somebody clarify me, why I can't specify sda1#sdb1, sda2#sdb2... etc? If I'll do it then installation will be crashed with error. But if I make as above, then installation will be OK

--- Post updated at 02:40 PM ---

because sda1 is 1 primary partition
primary partitions can be only 4 (if it isn't GPT)

sda, sdb - it's disks
sda1,sdb1 - it's first primary partitions

extended partitions start with number 5
and we have next pic:

Code:

sda
|- sda1
|-- md0
|
|- sda5
|-- md1
|- sda6
|- md2

and with sdb same...

pvresize

PVRESIZE(8)						      System Manager's Manual						       PVRESIZE(8)

NAME

       pvresize - resize a disk or partition in use by LVM2

SYNOPSIS

       pvresize [-d|--debug] [-h|--help] [-t|--test] [-v|--verbose] [--version] [--setphysicalvolumesize size] PhysicalVolume [PhysicalVolume...]

DESCRIPTION

       pvresize resizes PhysicalVolume which may already be in a volume group and have active logical volumes allocated on it.

OPTIONS

       See lvm(8) for common options.

       --setphysicalvolumesize size
	      Overrides the automatically-detected size of the PV.  Use with care, or prior to reducing the physical size of the device.

EXAMPLES

       Expand the PV on /dev/sda1 after enlarging the partition with fdisk:

       pvresize /dev/sda1

       Shrink the PV on /dev/sda1 prior to shrinking the partition with fdisk (ensure that the PV size is appropriate for your intended new parti-
       tion size):

       pvresize --setphysicalvolumesize 40G /dev/sda1

RESTRICTIONS

       pvresize will refuse to shrink PhysicalVolume if it has allocated extents after where its new end would be. In the future, it should  relo-
       cate these elsewhere in the volume group if there is sufficient free space, like pvmove does.

       pvresize won't currently work correctly on LVM1 volumes or PVs with extra metadata areas.
