Hello,
I wish to know if anyone has had issues installing Devuan Ascii Beta
2.0.0 with cryptsetup partitions on 32 bit systems using the graphical
install. I did today, and when I got to defining the partitioning and
filesystem layout, I set:
/dev/sda1 -> ext4 -> /boot
/dev/sda2 -> sda2_crypt -> ext4 -> /
/dev/sda3 -> sda3_crypt -> ext4 -> /usr
/dev/sda5 -> sda5_crypt -> ext4 -> /home
/dev/sda6 -> sda6_crypt -> swap
So far, so good. However, when I clicked on the button to finalize the
layout, format che crypted partitions ant mount them for the installation to
begin, I got the error that sda2_crypt failed to be mounted on /. I tried
several times and I always got the same error. The log console (tty8?) did
not show anything relevant, and neither did dmesg.
I opened a terminal, I checked that the devices in /dev/mapper did exist.
I formatted them by hand with mkfs.ext4 and I could mount
/dev/mapper/sda2_crypt on /target (I also tried to mount it on another
directory under /, but I cannot remember it's name; maybe /system?). No joy:
the error popped up again and the installer would not allow me to go ahead.
I'd like to know if it's it a known problem with the installer. Of course,
I'd like someone to propose a workaround, something that could be done
on the terminal to manually format and install the crypted partitions, skip
the disk setup step and go ahead with the installation.
Thank you,
Alessandro
