Bug Description
During installation from the desktop CD, I've chosen the option to install Ubuntu parallel to the existing partitions. I'm installing Ubuntu 11.04.
I expected it to use the empty space on /dev/sda, but instead it has overwritten without warning the external hard disk /dev/sdb which contained a luks-formatted partition (previously created in live mode).
