Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.88
Severity: normal
Hi,
I have my root filesystem on an encrypted LV:
$ grep root /etc/crypttab
root /dev/vg0/c_root none
luks,keyscript=/etc/keyscript_scyw00225
$ grep root /etc/fstab
/dev/mapper/root / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1
$
In this setup, the initrd does not start the LVM before trying to
unlock the crypto filesystem. From my diagnosis, it looks like
scripts/local-top/lvm2 looks whether the file system given to the
kernel on its command line is directly on an LV and only starts the
appropriate VG in this case. It does not seem to detect the
possibility of the root FS being on an encrypted LV.
A possible solution to this would be to provide a hook to override the
ROOT variable for the lvm2 script.
I have worked around this by copying the lvm2 script to
/etc/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-top and to hardcode an "activate_vg
/dev/mapper/vg0-c_root" there.
Greetings
Marc
