[Bug 1060383] [NEW] Ubiquity detects LVM and LUKS devices as "unknown"

[David Bensimon]

Public bug reported:

In 12.10 Beta 2 Ubiquity offers to preform an installation using LVM
(with encrypted option). Unfortunately it does not give the ability to
recover a current LVM system. Under the "Something Else" disk formatting
selection, it sees my encrypted LVM as well as my LUKS partition as
"unknown".

Ideally it would allow side by side as well as recovery options (such as
reinstall while preserving /home).
