I've found that the use of Ubuntu Hardy NfsRoot works whereas Debian
Lenny Not.

Here is a difference I've seen from both systems:

DEBIAN: KO
  VG Size               34.16 GB
  PE Size               4.00 MB
UBUNTU: OK
  VG Size               34,16 GB
  PE Size               4,00 MB

is this a bug in liblinux-lvm-perl that don't understand numbers with
dots...?
