Hi again Walter, I tested the Lubuntu Vivid beta 1 *alternate* ISO file for the testcase with LVM encrypted disk and encrypted home. I have tested it with several previous versions, so I know it by heart, and can run it even when you have removed it from the iso tracker. The computer is an hp Probook 6450b laptop with Intel i5 cpu: http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=emr_na-c02218879 There is a minor bug, that it wants to install the bootloader into the live drive. When selecting /dev/sda manually for the bootloader, it works :-) The installed encrypted Lubuntu system runs beautifully in my computer now, except that it failed to swapon (but this computer with 4 GB RAM can manage pretty well without swap). /dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-swap_1 exists, but when I try to swapon it directly, it complains: read swap header failed. sudo swapon -a complained that /dev/mapper/cryptswap1 does not exist. So this is another bug, maybe not easy to squash. I'll check, if the corresponding thing works with the Lubuntu Vivid beta 1 *desktop* ISO file Best regards Nio -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-qa Post to : lubuntu-qa@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-qa More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
