[Bug 1205397] Re: encrypted install fails because unsafe swap is detected

Same error. It only occurs when I attempt to encrypt my home directory.
Unencrypted, the installation goes without an error.
I notice that I have a one MB reserved space at either end of my disk
memory. Nothing I do will get rid of these partitions. I assume they
are the problem. Gpart doesn't remove them but gives me an error
instead. If I insist on trying again, it locks the computer up and I
have to do a hard reboot.
My disk was originally an uninstalled new purchase Windows 7. I refuse
to use that product for security reasons and am attempting to replace it
with Lubuntu 14.04. Looks like Microsoft is reaching out from the grave
to make sure their security problems stay with me evey when I don't use
their software.
The computer is a refurbished (by Acer) Acer Notebook
NX.V7EAA.009;TMP653-M-9889. It does have hardware TMP.
