I am writing to report an issue I encountered while trying to install RockyLinux (Rocky-9.3-x86_64) using the Anaconda installer.
Problem Description:
During the installation process, Anaconda is unable to recognize an already opened LUKS container.
In the text mode of the Rocky 9.3 installation, when trying to assign mount points for partitions manually to an encrypted LUKS partition, Anaconda throws the error "The existing unlocked LUKS device cannot be used for the installation without an encryption key specified for this device. Please restart the storage", I tried to work around the error with this instruction, but I ran into the following problem: the ks.cfg file successfully opens the LUKS partition, after partitioning the disk, the error "unlocked LUKS device cannot be used" does not occur, but when trying to continue the installation, an error appears on the screen: "luks device not configured" at the same time lsblk commands reflect the LUKS section as open.
Unfortunately, none of the solutions provided in these discussions worked for Rocky-9.3-x86_64. It's worth noting that there was no such problem in Rocky-9.1-x86_64. Detailed explanations and recommendations for version 9.1 can be found here https://github.com/AGolz/Born2beRoot, and they have been effective for version 9.1 thus far.
Expected Behavior:
Anaconda should recognize and utilize the already open LUKS container for installation.
I kindly request your assistance in resolving this issue. If there are any workarounds or steps I can take to successfully complete the installation, please let me know.
