Talk about timing, I got a T60 last night - and Encrypted LVM failed for me as 
well from expert install!  I restarted the process twice, same result both 
times = red screen with Failed on it :(

The exact same process works fine on my Asus EEE machines (several different 
models), so I do believe this has something to do with the T60 specifically.  I 
haven't searched online yet for a resolution/cause as of yet...

I'm certainly now looking forwared to any other relies this post gets.  I'll 
certainly let you know if I find anything.

The ATI is going to be an issue!  I have Intel in my T60.

My reason for purchasing this machine is to eventually put Coreboot (libre 
version), on here as well - I haven't done this before, and am certainly a bit 
nervous about it, honestly.  Will certainly start researching it soon however.

Best of luck!
