Oh come on. I have LVM and luks on my system with different versions of
Fedora. I want to install Fedora into newly created partitions, but I
can't, since Anaconda does not display the LVM volume label, so I don't
know what is what, nor let me unlock luks partition.
Upgrade would be if I want to move from my F17 to F18, but I want to
install them side by side (which is not upgrade) and that is not possible.
I think this is going in the wrong direction. The whole discussion was
based on a false premise: newUI does intend to handle LUKS, LVM and
RAID. Where it doesn't read and display an existing LUKS, LVM and/or
RAID-based layout correctly/usefully this is a bug, please report it as
such. Those earlier in the thread who leapt to the conclusion that
anaconda did not handle these things any more were *incorrect*.
Jesse, above, is only saying that upgrades no longer go through
anaconda, so any upgrade-related concerns are irrelevant. But for the
purposes of fresh installs, newUI is intended to handle the creation of
new LUKS/LVM/RAID devices and the display and editing of existing ones.
