Hey Jon,

thanks for the patch. I applied it to our svn in a slightly modified
version. First, I renamed cryptsetup_start to cryptdisks_start.
cryptsetup is the upstream tool, cryptdisks are our wrappers around it.

Second, I added some copyright header to the script:

# Initial code and (c) 2007 Jon Dowland <jon at alcopop.org>
# License: GNU General Public License, v2 or any later
# (http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html)

I changed that one to

install -m 0755 debian/scripts/cryptdisks_start $(CURDIR)/debian/cryptsetup/usr/sbin/

greetings,
 jonas
