Hi
I'm trying to install 9.04 using the encrypted LVM option (guided). It partitions and installs correctly into 3 partitions (1 - encrypted boot, 2 - swap, 3 - unencrypted). No matter where I choose to install grub I get "boot sector not found".
Im assuming grub needs to go on the 3rd partition as my BIOS can't see anything on the first one at boot time (as it's encrypted), however, the installer only seems to mark the 1st one as bootable.
I have tried editing menu.lst before the install finishes to point to the correct groot, but im not sure this is helping.
Has anyone installed *encrypted* 9.04 on an external drive?
TIA
Shaun
