Hi,

When I'm using = the graphical installer and I choose the option to automatically partition = with encryption, I then edit the partitions to add a swap partition (I do t= his=C2=A0 because I want a swap partition and it isn't provided by defa= ult). I do this by freeing either the root or home partitions (I've tri= ed both) and first allocating some storage to a swap partition, and then al= locating the rest back to the partition originally freed (and I encrypt it,= etc.).

The bug: When I tell it to go ahead and pa= rtition the drive according to what I set up, the screen flashes and resets= the entire installer to the beginning of the installation i.e. takes me ba= ck to the locale setting screen. However, when I don't create a swap, i= t seems to partition without complaint.

Thank= s,

It has a bunch of improvements, though I suspect that the one you're talking about is an elusive one that we haven't been able to fix yet, because we don't have enough debugging info. If my hunch is correct, it should crash in the very same way, possibly because of a segfault or similar in libgit (we already handle all guile exceptions).

the latest installer version there is a core-dump uploader which will
