May I suggest to add some short notice about this to the partitioning tool for us lazy users who don't read installation manuals?

It happened in both `installgui' and `install'. Please don't forget I selected Czech as the installation language so the keyboard names were presented in Czech.

That will be corrected with next localechooser upload. I'm puzzled by the "keyboard list is not sorted". AFAIK it should be.

This is expected, or could be a bug, depending on whether I understood your description correctly. :-) partman creates what looks like a single partition inside the encrypted device. This is really a "virtual" partition though, because it is not possible to create partitions on a dm-crypt or loop-AES encrypted device (it can be done with LVM). If one deletes that partition and creates a smaller one in it's place, partman should show the remaining space as "unusable" like in this screenshot: http://nusquama.org/~max/scratch/unusable.png Does this match what you saw? If not, could you describe in more detail what the screen looked like? Thanks. cheers, Max -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Encrypted partitions are not further partitionable, but you can achieve the described setup by using LVM inside the encrypted partition -- fully supported by installer. (I have similar setup on my laptop and everything works as expected, including swsusp.) > The final installed system looks fine so far, except that Czech is not a > default desktop language (gdm login is in Czech but the GNOME > environment started after logging in is all in English). This is known bug #361090. For now, you can workaroud it by explicitly selecting Czech in the GDM menu. -- Miroslav Kure -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
