[Lubuntu-qa] Fwd: Re: Alternate testcase changes

[Bryan See]

Hey Nio

Thanks a lot for the tips!

$ sudo swapoff -a

I tried it in a previous install but have no luck passing it through. I'm able to perform the encryption using alternate ISO though.

It would probably be an issue to new users because the default installer would be the one they would start with. Also, users who have no experience using bash may find difficulties running the command.
