AttributeError: 'DMCryptDev' object has no attribute 'partitions'
Attempting to run sudo archinstall from an FDE Arch Linux USB thumbdrive.
FDE thumbdrive setup/layout:
sdb 8:16 1 119.5G 0 disk
├─sdb1 8:17 1 190M 0 part /boot/EFI
└─sdb2 8:18 1 119.3G 0 part
└─lvm_crypt 254:0 0 119.3G 0 crypt
├─vgusb-root 254:1 0 32.3G 0 lvm /
├─vgusb-log 254:2 0 2G 0 lvm /var/log
└─vgusb-home 254:3 0 85G 0 lvm /home
Steps taken:
- ran
sudo archinstall - selected Select harddrives
- marked the LVM volumes I wanted to use
- pressed Enter to return to previous menu
- selected Select disk layout
- selected Select what to do with each individual drive (followed by partition usage)
Got the following python traceback:

USB drives as the install medium is still a bit in it's early days for archinstall. But we'll make sure to fix this.
Should also be noted that the requested installation target volumes do not make any use of dmcrypt. So the error is from scanning volumes that do not pertain to the requested installation and at best should have been info/warnings and not a traceback.
As mentioned in another issue, we've recently migrated from an older code base which directly worked with paths rather than a context of a device. In this particular case a DMCryptDev context is being iterated for it's partitions, something that would normally not happen when perfoming an installation from a vanilla ISO, as the installer would typically iterate the MapperDev instead.
in either case, we should deal with it but this is why anyway :)
Yea this should be fixed, the logic and workflow changed a bit. So we didn't solve this one directly but the issue shouldn't be happening anymore.
Hi @Torxed, unfortunately this issue still appears with the current ISO image 2022.12.01:
root@archiso ~ # cat /etc/os-release

I booted directly from the ISO, without converting it to a bootable USB medium. After luksOpen on my crypto container and selecting the LVM volumes by their dm-* device nodes I still got this error:

The version of archinstall is:
root@archiso ~ # archinstall -v
archinstall 2.5.1
Now the simple question is: does the mentioned ISO image already contain the fixed version of archinstall? Then the bug still exists - please re-open this issue.
Otherwise it would be nice to have a new ISO image to publish the fixed archinstall.
