Comments/Problems:
Installation gets started from USB-Stick (which was created by above
mentioned iso-image) to a harddisk - both devices are connected via USB.
The partition layout configured within the partitioner is this:

The error I get when selecting "Finish partitioning" and confirming the
upcoming dialog by clicking "Yes" is this:

As a matter of fact there is no swap active, as indicated by:
a) 'mount | grep swap'
b) 'cat /proc/meminfo | grep SwapTotal'
c) 'swapoff -a' doesn't do anything / doesn't help
c) the partition layout itself (no unencrypted swap partition created)
Inside the error I get presented two choices: "Go Back" and "Continue" -
however both drop me back into the partitioner, so I'm not able at all
to continue the installation.
