[pkg-cryptsetup-devel] Bug#535801: cryptsetup: root-device is changed wrongly

[Mourad De Clerck]

I can confirm this. The latest cryptsetup made my system unbootable. I
narrowed it down to this too:

@@ -265,6 +265,8 @@
                fi

                message "cryptsetup: $crypttarget setup successfully"
+               # required for lilo to find the root device
+               echo "ROOT=$NEWROOT" >> /conf/param.conf
                break
        done

reverting this change made it work again. I noticed in the initramfs
environment that ROOT was set to ROOT='/dev/mapper/swap_crypt' - which
clearly seems wrong.

Kind regards,

Mourad DC
