Title:
Warning message about cryptsetup during boot
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I have noticed that since upgrade to 20.04.1 (from 18.04), a warning
message appears during boot: "cryptsetup: WARNING: Option 'size'
missing in crypttab for plain dm-crypt mapping cryptswap1. Please read
/usr/share/doc/cryptsetup-initramfs/README.initramfs.gz and add the
correct 'size' option to your crypttab(5).".
AFAICT, there is no problem however. I use ecryptfs to encrypt my home
directory but I don't think it's related (since the message is related
to swap). This message used to appear during updates under 18.04 but I
never paid attention to it. I probably use the same setup since 16.04.
Others have reported the problem
(https://askubuntu.com/questions/1109463, https://medium.com/@anirudha
/fixing-cryptsetup-wating-for-encrypted-source-device-swapfile-error-
on-linux-boot-ubuntu-20-04-5483e0dcf9e9). From what I read:
- The answers indicate to edit /etc/crypttab and add a value for size but I
don't know what value to use.
- It seems that before 20.04, just editing /etc/crypttab was enough but
some users say that they need to manually regenerate the initramfs image after
each update which is boring.
I have asked the question at
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/693615 and @bernard010
suggested to open a bug report.
I have found anything worth in dmesg though.
As I said everything seems fine (boot proceed normally, I can use the
computer) but I expect that there is a way to permanently make this
warning disappear.
