Ubuntu install with ZFS and encrytion with custom partition layout

[Phil Shaw]

When the Ubuntu ubiquity installer runs:

Installation type: Erase disk and install Ubuntu

Advanced features button selected

Erase disk and use ZFS selected

Encrypt the new Ubuntu installation for security is checked

Choose a security key: choose and confirm security key

Erase disk and install Ubuntu

use the "advanced partitioning tool" for more control is selected

At this point there no way to select an existing partition as ZFS

If Ext4 journaling file system is selected for custom partition scheme then Ubuntu is not installed using ZFS boot/root and no encryption takes place.

This means it appears impossible to install Ubuntu with ZFS boot/root (and encryption) with a custom partition scheme

In addition there is no install warning that the install will not use ZFS and than no encryption will take place
