Bug#566497: install: Please support reusing existing crypt-lvm partitions
I second this wish. I'm triple-booting Debian Lenny(13G), Debian
Squeeze(13G) and Ubuntu Karmic(20G),
all on the same encrypted LVM.
I currently use Qemu to create install to a Qemu image file from which I
copy the install logical
volume, but I have to use a different LVM volume name to access them at
the same time as my "real"
LVM volume.
Figuring out which files to change to create an initrd.img that decrypts
the real volume with the
real LVM group name is proving difficult, and currently the initrd.img
created by the resulting
real partition is producing invalid images.
