This install was focused on testing dm-crypt support in
partman-crypto. It was done in german language.

Test (features):
  OK   /home       Passphrase (crypt0, aes-cbc-essiv:sha256, 256 bits)
  FAIL /opt        Passphrase (crypt1, serpent-cbc, 256 bits)
  OK   swap        Random key (crypt2, twofish-cbc-essiv:sha256, 256 bits)
  OK   /usr/local  Passphrase (crypt3, aes-cbc-essiv:sha256, 256 bits)

Test (sanity-checks):
  OK   weak passphrase
  OK   ext3 on random key
  OK   unencrypted swap before "Configure encrypted volumes"
  FAIL unencrypted swap added later on

Usability:

1. It was a little confusing that after I was asked to enter the
passphrases for sda2, sda3 and sda6, there was no apparent way to 
"connect" which of those partitions corresponded to which of the
encrypted volumes in the main partman menu. This might be related
to the german language setting: The mountpoint column showed part
of the string "Verschlüsseltes Volume (%s)" (translation for:
"Encrypted volume (%s)"), but the string was cut in the middle of
"Volume" IIRC, so that the part that includes the name of the
actual encrypted device was not visible.

Problems:

2. For the encrypted device crypt1 on /dev/sda3 I entered a
passphrase that included two umlauts. The first odd thing was that
the asterisk usually shown in the passphrase entry field was shown
differently: The asterisk appeared, but the cursor was not advanced
to the next character. I continued through the installation, but
found that entering the same passphrase during boot did not work. I
tried unsetting LANG, calling unicode_start/_stop before running
/etc/init.d/cryptdisks start once the system had booted, but none
of those combinations would accept the original passphrase
("äppelwöi"). This is a little surprising, because S05keymap.sh
runs earlier during boot than S26cryptdisks-early. 

The install was successfull apart from the above issues.

cheers,
Max

Changes: 
 partman-crypto (16) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   [ Frans Pop ]
   * crypto_tools.sh: quote variable to avoid syntax error.
   * Ask for passphrase and passphrase confirmation in one db_go.
   * Change template type for empty passphrase to error.
 .
   [ Max Vozeler ]
   * blockdev-keygen: Kill writer pipes on failure and move the
     check for the entropy plugin to the start.
   * Show short name of the crypto device in the mountpoint column
     of the corresponding partition. Closes: #381968, #393919
 .
   [ David Härdeman ]
   * Remove some hardcoded paths
   * Allow safe-swap checks to walk the entire device-mapper tree,
     meaning that swap-on-whatever-on-crypto is now ok. Loosely based
     on a patch from James Westby <jw+debian@jameswestby.net>.
