Reproducing this in a qemu vm: * boot from a recent precise alternative amd64 iso * choose locale, username, etc * 'encrypt home directory' -> no * 'partitioning method' -> 'guided - use entire disk and set up encrypted lvm' * 'choose disk' -> choose virtual disk 1 * 'write changes to disk' (to create a /boot partition?) -> ok * enter a passphrase -> whatever * 'amount of volume group to use for guided partitioning' -> accept the default, ie 100%
then I get an error at this point, on a scary red background: '''!! Partition disks No root file system No root file system is defined. Please correct this from the partitioning menu. ''' In a sense this is ok and accurate, because I indeed have not created an lv for the root filesystem yet. However it's a bit bad this is shown after accepting all the defaults for one of the major installer paths (encrypted lvm). * continue * get a 'partition disks' window, showing a /boot, a crypto partition, and then also encrypted volume (vda5_crypt) #1 8.3 GB K lvm * choose 'configure the logical volume manager' * 'display configuration details' shows that it does have a root and swap lv, but trying to continue gives an error -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/923552 Title: no way to create logical volume within lvm To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debian-installer/+bug/923552/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
