After the reboot I had a broken grub (just a grub shell, no entries). I started my computer with xubuntu live cd and fixed it via chroot and grub-install, update-grub. After another reboot, the grub menu was fixed, but it couldn't find root, even didn't ask for passphrase. I found out, that there is no cryptroot in conf/conf.d/ inside the init.rd image. I need to put dm-crypt in /etc/modules before update-initramfs fixed the conf. As far as I know and what I saw in my backups in lucid there was no need for that. If I'm right, there should be a procedure which checks if the actual system would boot after update e.g. checkin for dm-crypt in /etc/modules. I use lvm2 and LUKS ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: initramfs-tools 0.99ubuntu13 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.35-22.34~lucid1-generic 2.6.35.4 Uname: Linux 2.6.35-22-generic i686 ApportVersion: 2.0.1-0ubuntu6 Architecture: i386 Date: Sat Apr 28 13:55:59 2012 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS "Lucid Lynx" - Release i386 (20100427.1) PackageArchitecture: all ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm PATH=(custom, user) LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: initramfs-tools UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to precise on 2012-04-27 (0 days ago) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools/+bug/990460/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
