Hello,

it's no problem to do this with LVM. You simply create one Volume for / 
and one for swap. The volume for / you format with the wanted filesystem 
(ext3/ext4) and the one for swap you format as swap with mkswap. Then 
you simply mount the Volume for /, install the base system with 
debootstrap and configure the basesystem by chrooting into it.
Best Regards
