Dear List, I have an encrypted swap file located inside /var, which is on a separate LVM2 logical volume from /, but it does not get mounted on boot. Everything I've been able to find either implies my setup should work or is geared toward swap partitions, not swap files. I even put aside my reservations about messing with the links in rc.d, (tried starting cryptdisks in runlevels 2-5 and other things as well) but since it didn't work so I restored everything back to the default before I broke anything, and came here to ask for help/advice instead.
I've copied the following relevant info below: /etc/crypttab contents relevant /etc/fstab entries relevant rc?.d symlinks My system is Squeeze 2.6.32-5-amd64 Running invoke-rc.d cryptdisks start && swapon -a after boot works. During the boot process I can see messages on the console that show "Starting early crypto disks" succeeds, but "Starting remaining crypto disks" failed. I'd appreciate any pointers as to what I am doing wrong or how I can better troubleshoot the problem.
