I've been studying the swap mess. It seems that the installer made a swapfile called /swapfile and entered the line in /etc/crypttab as:
cryptswap1 /target/swapfile /dev/urandom swap,offset=1024,cipher=aes- xts-plain64 which is the wrong, non-existent filename. So that seems to be an issue with the installer scripts. Also, I do not believe that the installer even asked me about a swap partition. I recall being surprised at the time. Anyway, after fixing that and rerunning ecryptfs-setup-swap, I was able to use cryptdisks_start to get the encrypted swap going and reboot with encrypted swap successfully. I wonder if this has been the root of my problem all along? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1755800 Title: Greeter/lockscreen fails to authenicate in an endless loop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm3/+bug/1755800/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
