[Bug 1173225] Re: Full Disk Encryption Password From ubiquity (Raring 13.04) Fails During cryptsetup

[Steve Langasek]

Tom,

There is a test case for full-disk encryption that requires manual
testing before release, and this test was reported to pass.  Is it
possible that the problem you're seeing is related to keyboard layout
changes during configuration?  There's a known bug in ubiquity that the
LUKS passphrase setup is done before keyboard layout selection, so if
you picked a keyboard layout other than 'us' during the install, this
would explain the password not being recognized.

Title:
  Full Disk Encryption Password From ubiquity (Raring 13.04) Fails
  During cryptsetup

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Today I tried installing Ubuntu 13.04 Raring Ringtail five times, each
  time selecting full disk encryption and providing an encryption
  password. In every case, the encryption password provided during setup
  (ubiquity) fails to unlock the disk with cryptsetup after the machine
  is restarted.

  Password used to test this: "the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy
  dog"

  Obviously this bug makes full disk encryption with 13.04 completely
  useless.
