Hi. FYI, the proposed workaround in http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=420754#5 helps solve the issue.
I've patched /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hook-functions, then issued : mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.18-4-xen-686 2.6.18-4-xen-686 After that : the lib/ in the initrd image contains the libcrypt.so.1 lib ... As to know why sh needs libcrypt.so... it seems weird to me but that's just a naive opinion. These bugs should probably be merged... but I hope someone more qualified will have a better judgement.
