Bug#451535: debian-installer: allow to 'reuse' encrypted volumes



Package: debian-installer
Version: 20070308
Severity: normal


I had first installed i386 system with encrypted /home and swap. Then I
decided to install also amd64 build -- reusing both encrypted
partitions. Although I checked out smth like 'delete data' in the
encryption setup menu, which I treated as 'preserve/don"t touch', it
did reinitialize them and I had to recreate filesystems on top.

So I think 'Delete data' must be named 'Wipe out data', and another item
in the menu should be 'Reuse' or 'Keep existing encrypted volume'

Thanks in advance!
