Details

Description:
Boot process stops because couldn't mount a LUKS encrypted data partition after initscripts update.
More details: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=146111

Additional info:

I have separate encrypted root and home partitions.

/etc/crypttab (oroiginal, not working):
myhome /dev/disk/by-uuid/something1 /path/to/keyfile1
mydata /dev/disk/by-uuid/something2 /path/to/keyfile2

Working crypttab (for me):
myhome /dev/disk/by-uuid/something1 /path/to/keyfile1
mydata /dev/sda3 /path/to/keyfile2

Steps to reproduce:
Upgrade to initscripts 2012.07.5-1
This task depends upon

I can confirm this. My crypttab contains single entry, original state with /dev/disk/by-uuid/... specified path no longer works with initscripts 2012.07.5-1. Changing the path specification to UUID=... as described in manpage does not work either, changing to /dev/sdb1 makes it work. I use keyfile as well.

Initscripts 2012.08.1-1 from [testing] fix this for me.

  • Field changed: Percent Complete (100% → 0%)
[2012-08-12 11:26] upgraded initscripts (2012.07.5-1 -> 2012.08.2-1)

Error message:
crypt_init() failed: Block device required

What changed:
/dev/disk/by-uuid/ syntax works on both lines, UUID= still fails

This is a separate bug, which has been fixed in git.
