Can't see encyrpted LVM partitions during installation [solved]

[oneself]

Hi,


I'm trying to reinstall Siduction on a system with some encrypted partitions.  The system has two physical partitions.  sda1 has /boot on it, and sda2 has a volume logical with 5 encrypted partitions.  After booting up Siduction installation, I proceed to make the partitions accessible as follows:

Code Auswählen Erweitern


root@siduction:~# vgchange -a y

  1 logical volume(s) in volume group "vg" now active
root@siduction:~# cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/mapper/vg-crypt vgc
Enter passphrase for /dev/mapper/vg-crypt:
root@siduction:~# vgchange -a y
  5 logical volume(s) in volume group "vgc" now active
  1 logical volume(s) in volume group "vg" now active



At this I launch the Calamares installer.  I go through the steps and pick "Manual partitioning."  When I get to the next step, I can only see two partitions sda1, and sda2 (LVM PV).  I need to specify mount points inside the volume group, but I'm not sure how to do this.  This used to be possible since I installed Siduction on this system many times in the past.


I can even mount this partitions if I want to as follows:

Code Auswählen Erweitern


root@siduction:~# mkdir /mnt/sid
root@siduction:~# mount /dev/mapper/vgc-root /mnt/sid
root@siduction:~# mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sid/boot



How can I make the installer see these partitions?  Or is the old installer available somewhere?  It used to work fine for me.

Shortcomings
What Calamares cannot do at this point of its development is LVM

[devil]

Anyone else running into this problem can use cli-installer until Calamares is up to speede on this.

Yes, cli-installer works fine.
