Package: linux-image-2.6.32-3-amd64 Version: 2.6.32-9 Severity: important I set up unstable on a new laptop last week, using the same configuration that I had on my last laptop: a single LVM physical volume, encrypted (with the configuration created by the installer), divided into two logical volumes, one for swap and one for the root partition. /boot, obviously, isn't on that partition.
This morning, I tried to unhibernate the laptop for the second or third time ever. I entered my password and the screen blanked, but this time I was unlucky and it didn't come back (I was starting to hope hibernate would actually work ... oh well). So after giving it a good five minutes to do something, I finally just killed the power and rebooted. After the reboot, the initrd wouldn't accept my encryption passphrase. More specifically: it would unlock the partition, then announce that it couldn't find a filesystem on the device. I've booted the Squeeze live CD on the laptop, and it appears that the initrd was correct. I can unlock the partition by hand, but pvdisplay insists that the unencrypted device is not an LVM physical volume. Nor does it appear to be a filesystem of any normal sort. I'm not sure what sort of horrible thing happened to it at this point. I'm currently trying to hook the laptop in question up to the network so I can grab an image of the block device for analysis, in the hope that I can eventually figure out how to get my data off it (I'd like to get a working system on the laptop soon so I can use it one the bus). Obviously, I'd appreciate any suggestions you can give me with regard to tracking down what happened and/or repairing the system.
