Could you please clarify me how to use correct Debian's preseed file?
I have a kernel version 4.15.0-20-generic (Ubuntu 18.04) and default initrd (both downloaded from official repo)
Also I have a little kickstart file and main preseed cfg file
Installation start by iPXE
I no have problems this installation, all works good and installation during fine but...
I would to make flexible installation via preseed file, for example single installation, single installation with custom partitioning, raid installation mirror, stripe, 5, 6, 10...
Now I'm needed to make many preseed files and wget those, but I want to have just one main preseed file with many templates
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

primary partitions can be only 4 (if it isn't GPT)
