** Description changed:

- Binary package hint: partman-crypto
- 
  I'm doing a test install of gutsy 20071009.1 i386 d-i.  I selected use
  whole disk with LVM and encryption.  I think the passphrase entry screen
  needs improvements.
  
  Most users are not very good at choosing good passwords.  So the system
  should offer, by default, to generate one.
  
  Most important passwords that most users will be familiar with will have
  some kind of reset or recovery mechanism.  This is not the case here.
  This fact, and the consequences of passphrase loss, are not spelled out
  clearly enough.  The user should be advised to write the passphrase down
  on paper and keep it in a safe place separate from the laptop.
+ 
+ As of Ubuntu 7.10, the consequences of passphrase loss are clearly
+ spelled out, but the installer does not yet offer to generate a
+ password.
