[Bug 788882] Opensuse 12.3, milestone 1 - installer chokes on encrypted partitions

It hung after providing the encryption. I used CTL-ALT-F2 to get to a terminal session, mounted a local partition and copied both y2logs and y2start.log to a directory there.

Please also try to run cryptsetup manually:

I actually reported what happens with that in comment #2 above. Since that was on a different machine, I repeated the test on the same machine where I obtained the y2logs. To do that, I rebooted to rescue mode. That finished up in emergency mode, which might be another bug (I have not retested that). "cryptsetup" complained about the disk being read-only, so I could not complete that test. I restarted a full install. On the first screen, I used CTL-ALT-F2 to get a terminal. There, I mounted a local disk, did a cd to the directory with the y2logs file, and ran script. I then ran "fdisk -l" followed by "cryptsetup". The cryptsetup hung after providing the encryption key. I bailed out. That left me a "typescript" file with the session transcript. I shall attach "Bug788882.tgz" which is a gzipped tar of directory Bug788882 containing "y2logs", "y2start.log" and that typescript. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
