[Bug 813134] Re: [DATALOSS] ubiquity overwrites luks-formatted device without warning

[trina jackson]

During installation from the desktop CD, I've chosen the option to
install Ubuntu parallel to the existing partitions. I'm installing
Ubuntu 11.04.

I expected it to use the empty space on /dev/sda, but instead it has
overwritten without warning the external hard disk /dev/sdb which
contained a luks-formatted partition (previously created in live mode).
