[pkg-cryptsetup-devel] Bug#505779: cryptsetup: Please support /etc/init.d/cryptdisks force-start for noauto filesystems

[Niccolo Rigacci]

Package: cryptsetup
Version: 2:1.0.6-6
Severity: wishlist

Due bug #495509 the timeout option does not work anymore, so to boot unattended
you have to mark the crypt volume "noauto" in /etc/crypttab.

It can be useful to have a "force-start" option in /etc/init.d/cryptdisks, so 
you can start a "noauto" disk once the system is up and you are logged in.

Thank you very much for your great work.
