Bug Description
Testet with Ubuntu (Mate) 19.10 and 20.04 beta - but I guess the graphical installer is same for all flavours.
I have a single harddrive with a windows installation (sda1..4) and want to install an encrypted linux beside Windows.
First I booted into installer from USB stick.
In manual partitioning I created
sda5 ext4 /boot
sda6 encrpyted volume, give password "aaa"
sda7 encrpyted volume, give password "aaa"
sda6_crypt: ext4 /
sda7_crypt: ext4 /opt
In the next step I will ask for username, devicename and password.
While that I get an error:
mount of ext4 to an encrypted volume as / fails
I would expect I can setup an encrypted Linux out of the graphical installer, so no need to use console commands...
Edit:
I found that it works with just one encrypted volume. But adding the second volume /opt seems to wipe out the /. At least this is what I see in the partion scheme if I go back when this error message occurs.
So this bug seems to be happen if more than one encrypted volume is used.
Question:
If it would be possible to allow 2 encrypted partitions and both have same key: Howto make it comfortable and type in just one key for both?
