Yesterday I remembered that since a while [1] I've MODULES=dep in /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf. Indeed, this is the source of my bug: changing it to MODULES=most generates an initrd which recognizes my cryptoroot partition. Just for my curiosity, what was the MODULES value in your tests? > As you're the only one reporting this bug, I do believe that either > your setup is broken or you discovered a cornercase. > I'm thus downgrading severity to important. While I agree this could be a cornercase, I'm not sure it's less important. Anyway, it's your package ;-) >>> do you get a busybox rescue prompt after the cryptsetup failure?

Thanks to David's information [2], I could enter the rescue prompt! Briefly, dm-crypt is not present in the initrd, while all the others (thus dm-mod, sha256, aes and crypto_blkcipher) yes. ===== $ cat /proc/modules dm_mirror dm_snapshot dm_mod sd_mod thermal processor fan ahci libata scsi_mod dock $ modprobe sha256 && cat /proc/modules sha256_generic $ modprobe aes && cat /proc/modules aes aes_generic $ modprobe crypto_blkcipher && cat /proc/modules crypto_blkcipher ===== Thx, bye, Gismo / Luca Footnotes: [1] http://lists.debian.org/debian-kernel/2007/09/msg00275.html [2] http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?archive=yes&bug=478268#27
