DetailsMkinitcpio reports an error while generating an "encrypt"-enabled init ram disk for a kernel that has dm_crypt compiled in. I guess the script tries to modprobe dm_crypt and fails. The error is not fatal, i.e. mkinitcpio does generate a working ram disk anyway, but it would feel nicer if it wouldn't report that error to begin with.

Reason for closing: Won't fix
Additional comments about closing: This might indeed be an error, if dm_mod is missing completely. If you know you compiled it in you can ignore it, but if you forgot to compile it at all, this will warn you in time.
