Description of problem: The user sees a check-mark instead of the lock under the "Format" column when formatting and encrypting an existing LV or partition. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): RHEL 6.0 -- anaconda 13.??.82 (sorry, forgot the exact number in the middle there). How reproducible: Easily. Steps to Reproduce: 1. On a system with existing LVs, boot from DVD (or however) and run the GUI installer. 2. Select manual partitioning. 3. Edit an existing LV or partition and select the "Encrypt" checkbox. Actual results: Check-mark shows under the "Format" column for that LV/partition. Expected results: Lock shows under the "Format" column for that LV/partition. Additional info: Nothing more to say.
Since RHEL 6.1 External Beta has begun, and this bug remains unresolved, it has been rejected as it is not proposed as exception or blocker. Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to propose this request, if appropriate and relevant, in the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
I cannot reproduce this with 13.21.115 * create custom layout (/boot, LVM with / and swap) none encrypted. * write partitioning to disk, rebooted install (didn't do a full install) * edited /boot and selected format+encrypt == lock shows * edited / lvm and selected format+encrypt == lock shows You can't select encrypt without first selecting format. If you have a more detailed description of how you did this I can look into it further.
The only differences in what I did were: 1. The initial creation of the partition(s)/LVs included encrypting them. 2. I actually completed that installation. Otherwise, you've done the steps that I went through. Maybe (1) would have an impact but I doubt that (2) matters.
