I too am experiencing issues with multiple luks partitions. Under a single LVM I have three crypt-volumes. One for /, /home, and swap. All require passwords.
I have read the man page for crypttab and my entries are NOT using noearly; therefore all three partitions should be prompted for and asked in the INITRAMFS. Only / is asked for. If I add break=bottom to the kernel parameters and manually invoke the proper cryptsetup command to create the name_crypt decrypted devices and then exit the recovery shell my system will boot. Ideally I would like to configure /when/ I am asked for a pass-phrase so that I might control precisely when unlocking is attempted. early=during initramfs, before any filesystem mounts, BEFORE RESUME IS ATTEMPTED (???)=after / has been mounted, all paths relative to that container. init=first thing after leaving the initramfs and invoking from / (???)=After the first mount -a pass but before the second mount -a pass manual=Prompted when started by the user noauto=Prompted when started by the user -- System frezes after fscking root https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/447817 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
