Title:
do-release-upgrade on a server with encrypted swap does not boot
Status in initramfs-tools package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
I’ve upgraded a server to bionic beaver, and it couldn’t boot anymore.
Using the “recovery boot” option hanged a long time with the message
"waiting for resume device".
Some googling lead be to the bug #206358, and I deduced that do-
release-upgrade “messed with my swap” (as said by @aldebx on there).
This was a LVM set-up with an encrypted swap, which may explain the
bug.
My workaround, form the root login of the recovery mode was the following
1. comment out the RESUME line in /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume
2. rebuild the initramfs with update-initramfs -u
3. mount the /boot partiton to actually put the initramfs on the correct place
Now the systems boots again, but this problem shouldn’t have happened
in the first place.
