Public bug reported:
On multiple fresh installs since beta release 2 i have been experiencing this
issue:
during boot up, i receive the message "could not mount /dev/mapper/cryptswap1 M
for manual S for skip"
obviously I'm expecting no message to show up at all and it should boot
perfectly fine. I do however believe that i have found where the problem lies,
it is in /etc/fstab
This is how the original file looked:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a
# device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices
# that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
proc /proc proc nodev,noexec,nosuid 0 0
# / was on /dev/sda7 during installation
UUID=482c5b33-9ce8-4575-b787-cddeb1e93a5e / ext4
errors=remount-ro 0 1
# swap was on /dev/sda8 during installation
#UUID=eb23dadc-8e08-4769-8fc5-0b1216b67e5b none swap sw
0 0
/dev/mapper/cryptswap1 none swap sw 0 0
i believe the problem is that the following line of:
#UUID=eb23dadc-8e08-4769-8fc5-0b1216b67e5b none swap sw
0 0
is not supposed to be commented out, i believe this happens somewhere in
install. The ghetto fix for this is simply to remove the comment on it,
but it definitely should not be happening...
i have also found a eerily similar problem from Ubuntu 9.10 Bug #490760
which is a "duplicate" of another bug that is why i classified this as
cryptsetup, because that bug was.
