Public bug reported:
Hi,
I usuall install Kubuntu over LVM (possibly encrypted) using the live
CD, because I find creating the LVM manually (would be nice if the live
CD could include the lvm2 and cryptsetup packages, they're rather small
and it would save me to "aptitude install" them each time and have to
chroot to finish the install on the destination HD to add lvm2 again...)
then performing a "live CD install" is faster and easier rather than
using the "alternate CD", so I first manually create the LVM and volumes
and then install on it doing a normal "live CD install".
I've found out that the Kubuntu live CD installer manual partitioning
tool cannot install on LVM volumes (it doesn't properly recognize them)
if they haven't been previously mke2fs'ed or mkswap'ped, but it's OK if
they have been.
Would be nice if the partitioning tool could recognized LVM volumes even
if not populated with a filesystem (as it will mkfs them later on
anyway)...
