I'm trying to figure out how to perform an installation of Ubuntu 12.10 (in UEFI mode) with LUKS encryption and LVM scheme. What I've done so far:

  1. Booted on a GParted Live CD 0.14.1-6 in "UEFI mode only" (in the BIOS settings);

  2. Created a GPT partition table with GParted;

  3. Created one FAT32 partition of 250 Mo at the beginning of the disk as "primary partition" with "boot" flag and "cylinder align" with GParted;

  4. Rebooted the PC with an Ubuntu 12.10 64-bit DVD in "EFI mode only" (same BIOS settings);

  5. Used "something else" option for installation type during the partitioning step;

  6. Selected my free space and created a "Physical Volume for Encryption";

  7. Set my key for the encrypted container.

Now I'm stuck there and can't figure out how to:

  • Find how to create manually the LVM Physical volume, Volume Group and Logical volumes with this graphical installer;
  • Determine what should I select for the bootloader (entire volume, sda_crypt volume...)

This topic is related to a brand new Ubuntu 12.10 installation, I opened a previous one for 12.04.1 installation here
