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.
