This is an other issue since it is not possible to fill out the field of 
the bugtracker what opens after the bug! - I am really desesperated :-((

What shall I do further to fix such incredible bugs!??? - It seems that 
LVM ist a notorious problem at KDE since I had this issue often in my 
KDE-user-history...!

Another issue - You forum dont uses the keyboard-settings of the user - 
so I have no "#" character online...?

The installation-routine of 18.04 LTS 64 bit seems quite buggy! - at 
least with a new 500 GB Samsung SSD-drive
The drive was well recognied by the bios and also by linux and it was 
possible to manage it by gparted.
I have a "old" raid-system in the PC which is also configured by LVM2

I tried to install in several kinds.
1.) manually - there was the problem, that in the lvm-configuration it 
is actually NOT POSSIBLE to give an specific lv-name to each lv - any 
changement seems also not possible - so the LVs are numerated 
notoriously from 1 to n - what is often not helpfully
- when I also put the configuration on and start the installation - then 
the programm rubs without any question the Swap-partition of the OLD 
RAID-lvm !!! This is not very usefull since the Raid will be much slower 
than the SSD - and just I want to speed up the system!
After installation there is the message that the grub-installation 
failed since it could not write to /dev*/sda* however the SSD has /dev/*sdb*

THIS issue cames also in the automatical installation!
Other issue:
configuring first all LV with mountpoint and changing later it to set 
the format-option makes *crashing* the programm

- when there is any LVM-partition it seems not possible to remove/delete 
it!
- in the same way it is not possible to delete any partition in relation 
to an LV! or VG
- - to make such changes seems not possible...!
DOES the programmer of this nice prog have any real experience with LVM!???

2.) automatical installation with LVM
in my whole desesperation I tried now the automatical (guided) LVM - 
installation - but here the grub-installation fails in the SAME WAY!

However I tried some howto - how to install or repair *grub-install* - 
but even this dont works as promised and fails with mount-issues -

Also grub-setup ist not available!

How shall I change to the new Kubuntu, when it is even not possible to 
realize a simple installation!???
??:-\

How can I now install the actual kubuntu 18.04 LTS!???

Some tests with the LVM-Options enabled with the installation 
programm... seems strongly recommended!

**


BIG BUG in the Kubuntu Installation-Program

Did I post these BUGs on the right forum or not!?? - This are real
bugs in the KUBUNTU-Implementation of the installation program! -
Since I want to have an actual operating system with full bug
actualisations i tried the same procedure with the same version of
UBUNTU 18.04 - and miracle - THERE the installation succeeded!!! -
Neverteless ALL the LVM inconvenients and bugs are very similar -but
at least the writing of the boot-record and the GRUB-Installation
WORKED!!!
Its really a pitty that the KUBUNTU-Team cant provide a LVM running
installation! - with two LVM-used disks...!?? - And I would like it
so much to get Kubuntu, because I hate the gnome environment and
behaviour!! -

Could anybody forward these posts to any developer who could resolve
the problems!?? - will the resolving be part of any Release-note
remark???:rip:
