Hum, it seems that the issue is not always reproducible. I tried again
and the installation went fine with luks once with MBR but restarting
the system ended up in the rescue mode.
Startx opened an X session with 2 virtual consoles.
Launching sddm froze the machine.
With GPT partitioning the install went fine till the "bootloader step"
then it crashed:
