Relevant line from UbiquitSyslog.txt: Nov 9 05:12:46 ubuntu ubiquity: grub-install: error: attempt to install to encrypted disk without cryptodisk enabled. Set `GRUB_ENABLE_CRYPTODISK=1' in file `/etc/default/grub'..
I had a LUKS partition opened and had set up LVM lvs inside it. After fixing GRUB manually, the system still wouldn't boot. Ubiquity didn't create an /etc/crypttab so the system wasn't bootable. After creating a crypttab, I had to rebuild the initramfses. The whole encrypted root thing is underdocumented and pretty hard to get right. In addition, it was happy to install without a /boot partition selected, but grub-install won't work that way with an encrypted root. ** Package changed: grub-installer (Ubuntu) => ubiquity (Ubuntu) ** Summary changed: - installer fails to install grub on uefi system + installer fails to install grub with encrypted root fs -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1514303 Title: installer fails to install grub with encrypted root fs To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1514303/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
