It's a GUI problem in Kubuntus Installer. Here is a workaround: 1) click the radiobutton for the guided install with encryption and enter your password. 2) select manual partitioning 3) create your /boot partition with your desired filesystem and a physical crypto volume. on which you create your root filesystem
the password fields seem to be connected to the guided install but they are used globally. They seem greyed out but thats just a visual problem. The Password field is used whether you entered something or not. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1242847 Title: Kubuntu setup / install encryption keyfile creation failure when setting up luks To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1242847/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
