Bug description:
Binary package hint: linux-virtual
I set up full disk encryption, minus /boot, with debian-installer from
maverick mini.iso (dm-crypt/luks). Boots fine with -generic kernel,
but although I use it as a desktop (install ubuntu-desktop), as it is
a virtual machine in virtualbox, I would normally replace the -generic
kernel with the -virtual flavor. When attempting to boot the -virtual
kernel, I get the following errors when Plymouth should be asking for
the cryptsetup passphrase:
cryptsetup: evms_activate is not available
0b6) does not begin with /dev/mapper
I don't use EVMS, so /sbin/evms_activate is not present on my
installed system or in the initrd.img for -generic, but that doesn't
stop the -generic kernel from booting up. I tried the fixes in Bug
#106097 (mod to /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-top/cryptroot
and creating /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/evms, then rebuilding
the initrd.img for -virtual) to no avail.
Same problem after upgrading the maverick installation to natty.
