[pkg-cryptsetup-devel] Bug#542928: Bug#542928: cryptsetup fail with kernel 2.6.30-6

[Guillaume JAOUEN]

Hello,

I use a standard sid install with only nvidia proprietary driver :

Paquet : linux-image-2.6.30-1-amd64
Nouveau: oui
État: installé
Automatiquement installé: non
Version : 2.6.30-6
Priorité : optionnel

Pré-dépend: debconf | debconf-2.0
Suggère: linux-doc-2.6.30, grub | lilo

Description : Linux 2.6.30 image on AMD64
This package provides the binary image and pre-built loadable modules 
for Linux
kernel 2.6.30 on all 64bit single- and multiprocessor AMD and Intel 
machines.

This kernel also runs on a Xen hypervisor.  It supports only unpriviledged
(domU) operation.

Étiquettes: admin::kernel, implemented-in::c, role::kernel

Output during boot :
debian kernel 2.6.30-1-amd64
...
failure : failed to assemble all array
volume group "debian" not found.
skipping volume group debian.
unable to find LVM volume debian/root
volume group "debian" not found.
skipping volume group debian.
unable to find LVM volume debian/swap_1
done.
begin : waiting for root file system... done
gave up waiting for root device. common problems :
- boot args cat /proc/cmdline
- check rootdelay =(did the system wait long enough?)
- check root =(did the system wait for the right device?)
- missing modules ( cat /proc/modules)
ALERT! /dev/mapper/debian-root does not exist
dropping to a shell.

output of cat /proc /cmdline :

output of cat /proc/crypto :

output of mount /dev/sda1 /boot/ :

output of ls / :

boot ( I had to create it with mkdir)
conf

etc
init
lib
lib64
proc
root
sbin
scripts
sys
tmp
var

output of ls /dev/sd* :
sda
sda1
sda2
sda5

I can't mount any file system, they are in ext3 format.

I try to add a fat32 usb stick (sdd1 in the laptop) but it fail to mount 
too ...

So I can not get a full output of cat /proc/module :
...
ata_piix
libata
sdhci_pci
sdhci
mmc_core
led_class
uhci_hcd
firewire_ohci

libphy
scsi_mod
intel_agp
ehci_hcd
video
output
thermal
fan
thermal_sy
dm_mirror
dm_region_hash
dm_log
dm_mod

If I boot with 2.6.29-2 I get this phrase :
enter passphrase to unlock the disk (dev/sda5(sda5_crypt):

after entering the passphrase the system boot normaly :
