Bug Description
- Slightly related to https:/
In the 13.04 installer, during custom partitioning, you can create a partition, then set "Use as" to "Physical Volume for Encryption".
This creates a LUKS volume, with a ext4 filesystem inside.
It should be possible (and was, in older versions), to use the LUKS volume as a LVM Physical Volume. You can select the ext4 partition and select "Change". However, you cannot select physical volume.
Selecting "Physical Volume for Encryption" again, crashes the installer.
