Public bug reported: I'm trying to install kubuntu 9.10 with its alternate install cd for amd64 (2.6.31-14-generic). During the partitioning I go to the console to create my encrypted LVM with dm-crypt:
hdd layout: /dev/sda1 windows /dev/sda2 windows /dev/sda3 /boot /dev/sda4 extended partition /dev/sda5 device for encrypted lvm $ cryptsetup luksFormat -c aes-cbc-essiv:sha256 -s 256 /dev/sda5 $ cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sda5 sda5_crypt $ pvcreate vg0 /dev/mapper/sda5_crypt $ lvcreate -n root -L 10G vg0 $ lvcreate -n swap -L 10G vg0 $ lvcreate -n usr -L 20G vg0 $ lvcreate -n var -L 40G vg0 $ lvcreate -n home -L 80G vg0 After that I create file systems on those created devices. $ mkfs.ext4 /dev/mapper/vg0-root $ mkfs.ext4 /dev/mapper/vg0-usr $ mkfs.ext4 /dev/mapper/vg0-var $ mkfs.ext4 /dev/mapper/vg0-home During the creation of filesystem it comes to a kernel oops (it's reproducable, mostly happens at var or home). I don't have any way to copy paste the oops, so I'll attach a photo of it. I typed out the most important messages: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at .... IP: [...] crypt_dec_pending+0x14/0x90 [dm_crypt] PGD 21f1a8067 PUD 0 Oops: 0000 [#2] SMP last sysfs file: /sys/devices/virtual/block/dm-3/uevent That box is also running windows xp rock stable. So I would not guess on a hardware fault. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- kernel oops when trying to create filesystems in a dm-crypt plus lvm setup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/486345 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
