The problem reported above was not particular to the dvd iso. Also, I have since found the daily snapshot iso files at cdimage.ubuntu.com.
I have just installed the 20100401 amd64 server cd iso using the guided encryption+lvm option, with grub 1 (legacy). I am able to normally boot using this installation setup. I suspect that the fixing of https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/527666 is the reason that the boot process now succeeds. -- first boot after installation of lucid beta 1 from dvd iso fails when using encryption https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/550023 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
