Public bug reported:

Boot image: 20180220
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/daily-live/

I tried to install the ubuntu-server daily live today and when presented
with the partition program I noticed that almost all the interesting
features are gone!

There is no way to select encryption and lvm to start with.

It doesn't scan the disks, basically if you have already any partition
on any disk it will not show you anything. Just an option to create a
new partition.

This is really BAD!

I've a machine with 3 HDs on which I would like to:
- full encrypt all of them!
- be able to use lvm to have swap and any number of partition on any disk
- use ext 2 for /boot (which is not encrypted)

At least I was able to configure the keyboard correct this time.
By the way, the new install interface is terrible! The older one was a lot user friendly and did the work, this doesn't even look good.
