I have had a closer look but have been unable to reproduce such crash so far. On the off-chance that you are still motivated to try it once more :-) Please do save a copy of files in /var/log/ from inside the installer. Those should allow to narrow-down the problem. > This time I made it up to 100% and was than messaged, that I > had choosen crypto for "/", which is not possible, I should go > back and change this. > > Remember that crypto for "/" had, at least to this point, > worked so far under choosen dm-crypt. Yes. Encrypted root on loop-AES is not implemented since we still need hooks for initramfs-tools to handle it. This is tracked in Debian bug #378488, which also has a preliminary in- development version of such hook scripts. > I now switch off everything and dry the pee with a bing fan > because I am pissed off. Sorry if you have wasted your time. I hope that I / we / the documentation haven't given the impression that it is expected to be working flawless at this stage of development. If you still decide to do more tests with it, the best place to report your results with the development version of the installer is the debian-boot mailinglist (debian-boot@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx). cheers, Max - Linux-crypto: cryptography in and on the Linux system Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/linux-crypto/
