I don't think any of the discussions about an installer included the idea of

developer would get behind the idea of replacing current Gentoo installation;
it merely is about offering a different choice to the end-user.

I had this issue with cryptsetup. I believe it is an unloaded or
missing kernel module - I can't check as I can't reproduce, sorry.
Will see if I can find more in the meantime.

Hello everyone,
When attempting to create a LUKS encrypted partition, I get get "device
or resource busy" that prevents me to continue with the gentoo
