[Bug 940025] Re: [public] armadaxp net installer fails to properly encrypt disks (dm-crypt)

[Steve Langasek]

(debian-installer-netboot-images is an obsolete source package only
found in natty; please don't assign bugs there, that's virtually
guaranteed to be a black hole for bug reports.)

** Package changed: debian-installer-netboot-images (Ubuntu) => debian-
installer (Ubuntu)

Title:
  [public] armadaxp net installer fails to properly encrypt disks (dm-
  crypt)

Status in The Eilt project:
  Confirmed

  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Build Version/Date: http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/precise/main/installer-armhf/20101020ubuntu113/images/armadaxp/uInitrd (with 1500.3 uImage)
  Environment used for testing: armadaxp1

  Summary: armadaxp net installer fails to properly encrypt disks (dm-
  crypt)

  Steps to Reproduce:

  1a) run net installer
  1b) choose Guided - use entire disk and setup encrypted LVM
  1c) complete crypt setup and password and reboot

  2a) run net installer
  2b) choose Manual partitioning
  2c) configure an encrypted partition (physical volume for encryption)
  2d) choose configure encrypted volumes and then activate encrypted volumes

  Expected result: system boots and requests unlock passphrase

  Actual result: 1) after install, boot hangs after udev, 2) during
  install, activate encrypted volumes fails claiming no dm-crypt devices
