Boot up the image
If you see the GRUB boot menu you should see the following:
  • 'Try or Install Lubuntu'
  • 'Lubuntu (safe graphics)'
  • 'OEM install (for manufacturers)'
  • 'Test memory' (only on BIOS systems)
  • The system boots properly and loads the installer displaying the Welcome dialog with language selection and 'Try Lubuntu' and 'Install Lubuntu' buttons

    • 'Install third-party software...' option available
    Click on the Continue button

    If there is only one hard disk, skip to step 12 (On the 'Where are you?' screen...). Otherwise, on the 'Installation type' page, select a drive in the 'Select drive' list.

    Trying to use the whole drive with encrypted LVM and encrypted home.

    It complained about existing swap (which is zram), so I had to turn it off with
    sudo swapoff -a
    and restart Ubiquity. It complained that partman failed:

    ubi-partman failed with exit code 141. Further information may be found in /var/log/syslog. Do you want to try ... There was also this message: An error occurred with the configuration of encrypted volumes.

    The installed system worked, but I had the same error as with the alternate iso file: there is no swap.

    I wiped the drive (wrote zeros to the first megabyte using mkusb (dd)) and made an MSDOS partition table using gparted.

    Then I tried again with Ubiquity, and succeeded: The installed system works, and there is swap :-)

    Summary: Encrypted LVM and encrypted home can be installed (if you also swap off, wipe [the first megabyte of] the internal drive and create a new partition table).
