Kjetil and Christian is it possible for you to test this?

As of now, I only have my laptop to test Jessie, which is something I use every day, and so I'm anxious about putting such an important thing as systemd from experimental on it. I've had the ambition to be able to easily set up virtual hosts for these occasions for a long time, but alas, ENOTIME.

well, this is quite demotivating.

I am not concerned by the cryptosetup problem, I just wanted to help make the upgrade to the coming release better for people that are using crypted partitions.

But lets see, whether you're maybe able to contribute just a tiny bit -

Other than dropping the effort to try to improve on this particular problem I see two ways forward:

  a) you could test on your computer and I help you a bit
  b) I could test on my computer and you help me a bit
  a&b=c) we could both test

Let's see a)
============
You can do:

    # apt-get install lxc
    # lxc-create -n test_VM -t debian -- -r jessie

This will create a VM under /var/lib/lxc/test_VM, that you
can easilly remove later with

    # rm -r /var/lib/lxc/test_VM

You can start the VM with:

    # lxc-start -n test_VM

If you go and do something different while lxc-create is downloading its stuff, the whole thing takes about 1 minute of your time.

After that you can set up the crypted device and install systemd from experimental inside and see whether it works.

Now way forward b)
==================

Could you tell me how to quickly set up a crypt device?


Please let me know what you think, greetings,
*t
