found 402417 1.0.4+svn16-2 thanks Hi,
I have a setup with LUKS-encrypted root partition on LVM. The boot fails with similar results as the original report. My LVM volume group is called 'kelev'. /etc/crypttab: ------------------------------------------------------------- # <target device> <source device> <key file> <options> root /dev/kelev/root none luks home /dev/kelev/home /etc/keys/home luks var /dev/kelev/var /etc/keys/var luks varlog /dev/kelev/varlog /etc/keys/varlog luks varcache /dev/kelev/varcache /etc/keys/varcache luks tmp /dev/kelev/tmp /etc/keys/tmp luks -------------------------------------------------------------- Grub entry: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.19-rc6-kelev root (hd0,2) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.19-rc6-kelev root=/dev/mapper/kelev-root ro exec-shield=1 resume=/dev/hda6 video=intelfb:1024x768-24 splash initrd /initrd.img-2.6.19-rc6-kelev savedefault ------------------------------------------------------------------------ /etc/fstab entry: -------------------------------------------------------------- /dev/mapper/root / reiserfs user_xattr 0 1 -------------------------------------------------------------- When I boot with this configuration, it activates LVM and then prompts me for the LUKS pass phrase. But then it tries to mount /dev/mapper/kelev-root (the underlying LVM device) as root, which fails, and drops me into a shell. I can then mount -t reiserfs /dev/mapper/root root manually and continue the boot. If instead I supply /dev/mapper/root or /dev/kelev/root as the root= argument on the command line (by editing the command line in Grub when booting), then it doesn't attempt to activate LVM at all. The output is something like this (copied by hand): ---------------------------- Begin: Running /scripts/local-top ... device-mapper: ioctl: 4.10.0-ioctl <...stuff deleted...> Setting up cryptographic volume root (based on /dev/kelev/root) cryptsetup: Source device /dev/kelev/root not found ---------------------------- Marcus
