Hi,
with my account I can't select 'wishlist', so I changed the status to 'fix
released'.
The good news, now I know what happens and there is some fix for the
timing problem. If I get it correct, this occurs because there is a
dirty trick in libdevmapper. It seems, that in the first step /dev/dm-1
is created ant then moved to /dev/mapper/yourcryptdevicename. If you use
UUID=xyz in your /etc/fstab, mountall sees UUID=XYZ connected to
/dev/dm-1 and tries to fsck /dev/dm-1. Now fsck returns an error because
/dev/dm-1 doesen't exist anymore.
The (dirty) fix is to use /dev/mapper/yourcryptdevicename instead of
UUID=xyz in your /etc/fstab.
For the part with the two steps ('early' and 'init') I prefer actually
my own script in /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-
bottom/<_usbkey>. Since this is part of the initrd.img it has some
advantages (dont forget to recreate your initrd.img, after creating or
changing this file). My script looks like:
#!/bin/sh
set -e
# Hook for mounting encrypted usb stic, change usbdev in ... and USBKEY to
reflect your environment
for ask_passphrase in first second third last ; do
for in usb-0000_Removable_Drive_20112824060840760045-0:0-part5
\
usb-0000_Removable_Drive_20031424060835920030-0:0-part5 ; do
if [ -L /dev/disk/by-id/$usbdev ]; then
if [ -r /dev/mapper/USBKEY ]; then
/sbin/blkid /dev/mapper/USBKEY && exit 0
cryptsetup remove USBKEY
echo "wrong passphrase $ask_passphrase try"
fi
cryptsetup create USBKEY /dev/disk/by-id/$usbdev --readonly --tries 1
sleep 0.2
fi
done
done
