While this is a bug and should be fixed, I've found a cleaner workaround (and not prone to overwriting by a possible dpkg upgrade). Add keyscript=/lib/cryptsetup/askpass to crypttab, e.g.:
root_crypt UUID=916478f6-fdee-48e1-bc6f-dba0c5145dfa none luks,keyscript=/lib/cryptsetup/askpass and update-initramfs. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1355617 Title: "plymouth ask-for-password" unable to read keyboard input on Xen PV console (hvc0) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/+bug/1355617/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
