RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Comment 15 Jeff Bastian 2015-09-01 21:56:43 UTC 
Another user experienced a similar problem:

I was trying to reuse an existing LVM-on-LUKS volume as the root filesystem volume.

I chose "I will configure partitioning" and hit Done
Expand the Unknown filesystems
Select the "Encrypted (LUKS)" partition and enter the password to unlock it
Expand the discovered operating sytsems and go to my "test" installation
Select the test /boot and set /boot as the mount point and click Update Settings
Do the same for /boot/efi
Select the test / and set / as the mount point, click the "Reformat" check-box,
  de-select the "Encrypt" check-box (since I don't want to do
  LUKS-on-LVM-on-LUKS), and click Update Settings
  NOTE: at this point, the Encrypt check-box is re-selected automatically and grayed out
Click Done
Click Accept Changes
Click Begin Installation
