Hey Nio Thanks a lot for the tips! $ sudo swapoff -a I tried it in a previous install but have no luck passing it through. I'm able to perform the encryption using alternate ISO though. It would probably be an issue to new users because the default installer would be the one they would start

Hi again Bryan, It works for me today with the current daily Lubuntu vivid-desktop-i386.iso when I run sudo swapoff -a before the installer is started. I have 'Encrypted disk with LVM' now :-) Best regards Nio Den 2015-03-08 11:47, Bryan See skrev: > Hey Nio > > Thanks a lot for the tips! >

Hi Bryan, I agree, that it would be better if this issue is resolved. The work-around to swapoff the zRAM is not too difficult, but of course, the zRAM should be tolerated during the installation. sudo swapoff -a See the attached very early suggestion to a testcase for the Lubuntu desktop instal

There is an existing problem at the default installer side: some users would get the "Unsafe swap space detected" issue during full disk encryption. http://askubuntu.com/questions/393418/unsafe-swap-space-detected Using alternate ISO seems to be a solution to this issue. However, it would be be

Hi again, This link at Arch Linux discusses different aspects of encryption in computers, disk encryption and data encryption (with the special case home encryption). https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/disk_encryption My conclusion after reading that link is that 'Encrypted disk' is better tha

Hi again, I can reply at once. The *desktop* cases need some modifications: 1. Simple edits because of differences in the flavours. 2. zRAM must be switched off. This must be done outside of Ubiquity now. The *server* case needs some edits too because of differences in the flavours. So there ar

Hi again, I want to add: 1. I really think we should have a test-case for 'Encrypted LVM' 2. I can think of situations, when 'Encrypted home' is a better alternative. We can add such a test-case, if the Lubuntu users think it is important. As it is now, these two test-cases would be independent

I like the idea of being consistent with the rest of the Ubuntu family. Does the standard encrypted LVM in ubiquity and Debian-installer (server) work for us without any changes? If so, give me the numbers and I'll set them up for us. No changes needed then! @wxl Lubuntu Release Manager, Head of

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 'e

2015-03-04 Thread Walter Lapchynski
I agree there's no reason to wait for desktop to implement the change to alternate. I do, however want to emphasize that encryption is more valuable to the average user than LVM. Maybe we should separate these testcases for now? Then at some point in the future, we could create a combined one. O
