Bug Description
Using the alternate CD to install 8.04 with this partitioning scheme:
/dev/sda1: /boot unencrypted
/dev/sda2: swap encrypted with random key
/dev/sda3: / encrypted with password
generates a freeze in the partitioner at 47%.
I had this bug on two different systems, with very different hardware. I think the bug is related to the random key option in the partitioner (I can post the specifications of the two PCs, if needed).

I can confirm this in hardy under VMware. Probably worth noting that I encountered this while doing a netboot (PXE) install.
