[pkg-cryptsetup-devel] Bug#619010: Bug#619010: (no subject)

[jonas]

Hello Volker,

Sorry for the long delay, I was away the last two weeks.

Unfortunately I'm unable to reproduce your bugreport so far. Did you
try the latest linux-image-2.6.38-2-686-bigmem package with cryptsetup
2:1.2.0-2?

I only checked the amd64 2.6.38 debian kernel
(linux-image-2.6.38-2-amd64), but that one worked with several different
LVM-on-LUKS setups.

Both warnings are ok if your setup is LVM on top of LUKS. The initramfs
script searches for a LVM or EVMS group to enable before unlocking the
device.

Please provide more precise information about your setup:

- content of /etc/crypttab
- content of /etc/fstab
- exact output of the boot process: what is the last output you see?

You should see the LVM/EVMS warnings with the 2.6.37 kernel as well,
right?
