Hi Walter, Encrypted LVM is *the* test-case in all other Ubuntu flavours including Ubuntu server. I really think we should test it, not only LVM. 'Encrypted disk' is implemented via LVM.
Lubuntu is a special case with 'encrypted LVM', and inside it 'encrypted home'. What I suggest is to remove 'encrypted home' from the test-case.
