that package installed. T

I'm trying to make a bootable backup disk based on this howto.
The backup is on an external usb-sata drive. There is an sdc1
partition that is not used, a small sdc2 for boot, unencrypted, and an
sdc3 encrypted. On this there is a volume group, with two lv-s, one
for root and one for swap.
