I tried installing Arch on my Lenovo T420s using the latest
test iso (2011-06-10) as suggested in this thread:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=118691
Then I tried to setup full disc encryption with LVM as described in the Install Guide at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Official_Arch_Linux_Install_Guide#Manually_configure_block_devices.2C_filesystems_and_mountpoints That step failed however with the error message ERROR: process_filesystem needs a partition as $1 Looking at the log file (http://sprunge.us/BCMe) I suspect that AIF tries to mount the volume group /dev/mapper/cryptpool which fails for obvious reasons: [DEBUG UI ] inform: Phase 2: Mounting filesystems [DEBUG UI ] inform: Mounting /dev/mapper/cryptpool () on [DEBUG UI ] die_error process_filesystem needs a partition as $1 Then AIF exists. The full logs are available at: http://sprunge.us/OFJW |
This task depends upon
This behaviour was found in the Arch Releng ISO dated 06-10-2011 using the i686 installer. I haven't tested the x86_64 installer yet.
no need for esc or cancel buttons to trigger.
happens to me with even a simple LVM setup (1 VG, 1 LV), it indeed tries to mount the VG.
confirmed fixed by user Tucos in 2011.08.19 (both interactive and 2 automatic installs were tested, to be sure)
