Storage Layouts - custom partitions with interactive selection for easy of update.

[Pratik-Poojary]

We are looking to get below preseed file converted into autoinstall.

PRESEED Used for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS d-i partman-auto/method string lvm

d-i partman-lvm/device_remove_lvm boolean true d-i partman-lvm/confirm boolean true d-i partman-lvm/confirm_nooverwrite boolean true d-i partman-lvm/device_remove_lvm boolean true d-i partman-auto-lvm/guided_size string max d-i partman-basicfilesystems/no_swap boolean false

For LVM partitioning, you can select how much of the volume group to use

for logical volumes.

. Does autoinstall provides an option wherein the partition size for custom storage layout can be modified using interactive menu.
