Title:
  Setting up encrypted swap does not work in the netinstaller

Status in “partman-crypto” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I used the netinstaller from

  http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/lucid/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/netboot.tar.gz

  Date of the file was 23-Feb-2010 23:03

  When setting up an encrypted partition as swap manually (using the
  "Configure encrypted volumes" menu, aes128, random password) the
  partitioner will say (when doing "Finish partitioning and write
  changes to disk") that "The attempt to mount a file system with type
  swap in Encrypted volume (sda3_crypt) at none failed" ... If you
  manually do "mkswap /dev/sda3_crypt" on a terminal after that error
  message and do "Finish partitioning" it will succeed. If you do mkswap
  BEFORE you have seen the error message for the first time, "Finish
  partitioning" will fail.
