Hi Holger,
Thanks for the report.
I have committed the attached patch to the release-notes and it will be
visible on the website within 4-6 hours from now.
If you can spare a moment to review it, it would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
~Niels

+ There are some cryptsetup that are unfortunately not supported

+ <listitem>
+ <para>precheck</para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>check</para>

+ <para>loud</para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>keyscript</para>
+ </listitem>
+ </itemizedlist>
+ <para>
+ If your system relies on any of these for successful booting, you
+ will have to use sysvinit (<systemitem
+ role="package">sysvinit-core</systemitem>) as init system. Please
+ refer to <xref linkend="systemd-upgrade-default-init-system" />
+ for how to avoid a particular init system.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ You can check if any of these options are in use on your system by
+ running the following command:
+ </para>
+ <screen>
+grep -e precheck -e check -e checkargs -e noearly -e loud -e keyscript /etc/crypttab
+</screen>
+ <para>
+ If there is no output from the above, your system does not use any
+ of the affected options.
