[Bug 1862503] Re: Installer crashed

[Alberto Donato]

I did want to have @ and @home.

When installing previous ubuntu releases, I usually kept the btrfs
partition with the @home subvolume, and moved the @ one out of the way,
and the installer would create the new @ subvol for root, and reuse
@home.

This my current layout (on eoan) is the following:

/dev/sda1 EFI  -> /boot/efi
/dev/sda2 ext2 -> /boot
/dev/sda3 LUKS volume, containingt the "ubuntu" LVM PV with following LVs:
  "swap" -> swap
  "root" -> btrfs with "@" and "@home"

Before reinstalling, I just moved "@" to "@-eoan" and manually recreated
the same layout, picking /dev/ubuntu/root as btrfs filesystem mounted at
/, without formatting.

The installer creates the @ subvolume and reuses the @home one.

Since this attempt, I've been unable to test the install again because
of #1867065 which doesn't get me past boot.
