This happens only for root on a crypted device with a keyfile other than 'none'. If I read initrd-tools correctly, it will run /keyscripts/* (not sure where it gets them, not sure where its documented) but it will ignore the keyfile field in /etc/crypttab. When booting with initrd-tools, do you have to enter a passphrase to unlock the root disk? If so, there's probably a typo in /etc/crypttab that was not detected by initrd-tools, and we can close this report. Otherwise, could you describe how you feed the key to cryptsetup? We'll then need to find a way to do that in yaird, preferably one that works in mkinitramfs as well. Regards, Erik -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
