Description Morgan Leijström 2022-12-31 12:31:19 CET 
Description of problem:
It is possible to create an encrypted LVM, create / in it, and continue installation without having an unencrypted /boot outside the encrypted LVM.

Installer should warn.

(Or make it work... IIRC I read somewhere encrypted LVM cold work)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
mga9 beta around christmas

Comment 2 Morgan Leijström 2022-12-31 15:13:25 CET 
It is not easy to solve
Grub2 only support elder luks version

I suggest to just make diskdrake/installer to warn.
