Don't know if it's related but the latest cryptsetup update in edgy appears to have broken setting up my (non luks) partition. I have usplash turned off, but have been unable to get a passphrase prompt. I have tried manually putting in the fixes to /lib/cryptsetup/cryptdisks.functions but have had no success. In the end I had to use cryptsetup from the command line (which worked fine).
The version of cryptsetup I now have is 2:1.0.4+svn26-1ubuntu1~edgy1 - command line reports $ sudo cryptsetup --version cryptsetup-luks 1.0.5 More on ubuntuforums at http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2291494 -- Upstart doesn't activate luks volumes (also non luks) in cryptsetup https://launchpad.net/bugs/62751 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
