Ok, there seems to be a bug in debian's initramfs-tools that resembles a lot the one described at http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=507721 . In the last few days I learned how to unpack, edit and re-package the initrd.img file manually. I found there is a file conf/conf.d/ cryptroot missing from the initrd.img 's contents. Just add it manually and re-package the initrd.img and the machine boots fine. Reading the discussions from the link above, I thought that there might be a bug in initramfs-tools that stopped them from working with the disk partition labels in /etc/fstab. So change /etc/fstab back to use /dev/mapper/root again instead of LABEL=CRYPTOROOT for the root partition, call update-initramfs ... _et voila_ . Too bad that the debian docs for upgrading etch to lenny recommend the disk partition labels to avoid /dev/hda - /dev/sda confusions with a new kernel where it is not necessary at all with lenny's 2.6.26-1 . -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
