Ok, I'll try that. Thanks. On the other hand, I installed the new version of udev through apt-get dist-upgrade, so it's very much possible that initramfs is already up-to-date, but I'll try nevertheless. >> Also, until now I could easily fall back to an old kernel (2.6.28-5) and >> continue to use my machine without much trouble.

I rebooted several times to verify the behavior, and here how it goes : - boot with kernel 2.6.26-5 (nosplash) - ask for passphrase - boot continues a while then stops (disk LED blinks but no hearable disk activity) - wait some minutes - me hit Ctrl+C => nothing - me hit Ctrl+Alt+Del => a warning appear briefly about a killed process - boot continue but / is mounted as read-only Is there a way to found which process hang during the boot ? -- udev has wrong name for devmapper devices, cryptsetup initramfs hook fails https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/325690 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
