I can confirm this problem in Edgy on x86. My /etc/crypttab has this line:
crypt /dev/hda6 Dapper used to stop during boot and wait for the passphrase. Edgy does not. When I boot without "splash", I can see the failure message: Starting early crypto disks... Enter passphrase: Command failed: Key reading error After the system comes up, I can run /etc/init.d/cryptdisks (or cryptdisks-early) by hand and it works fine; it waits for the passphrase and starts the encrypted device. -- cryptdisks-early and crypdisks scripts don't wait for password https://launchpad.net/bugs/66577 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
