[Bug 1311028] [NEW] Lubuntu installer bugs (encryption without swap)

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

Hello,

I have encountered difficulties when installing Lubuntu 14.04 with the encrypting options.
So this report concerns the Lubuntu installer package, but I don't know it's name.

My configuration :
- ASUS eeePC 1005PXD
- Bios-GPT configuration
- Lubuntu 14.04 32bits installed from a USB key prepared by UnetBootIn
- Clean GPT Hard'Disk, with only 2 blanks partitions (sda1=1Go and sda2 = 20Go)

During the installation process, at the partitioning step, I asked for a
manual installation (/dev/sda1 is the bios_grub raw partition, every
files on /dev/sda2 and no swap) but when asking for a encrypted /home, I
get a not understandable message "ubi-usersetup failed with error code
n°1 .......".

Then I deleted all partitions (clean GPT disk) and asked for an
automatic installation : Install a new Lubuntu on /dev/sda with "LVM +
encryption". It fails too, whith a message "The swap partition is not
encrypted....". In fact, I haven't any swap partition and I don't want
any.

Then I tried a new manual installation, this time with /dev/sda1=bios-
grub raw partition , /dev/sda2 = /boot , /dev/sda3 = encrypted /root
(LUKS ext4). I get the same error message "The swap partition is not
encrypted....". What is it talking about ?

Finaly I reached my goal with that third method by booting with "Live USB" method then creating a swap partition, then desactivating it with gparted before starting the installation process from the live desktop.
Such an adventure... I was just asking for an encrypted installation without swap. Is it so unconventionnal ?
