Excerpts from Thomas Bächler's message of Mi Jan 26 18:34:22 +0100 2011:
Okay, this has been sitting in git for a loooong time, and I am throwing it out there. This should receive lots of testing, as there has been major rewriting done. We need to make sure there are no regressions. It should also fix a small number of bugs.
<snip>
Rewrite /etc/crypttab processing.
I've found a small issue coming from this: the "fourth column" (options) in /etc/crypttab used to mean "everything beginning with the 4th column to the end of the line", apparently now it is required to put the whole expression within "..". For instance I have some parameters in the SWAP line, I had to change the line
swap /dev/vg/swap SWAP -c aes-xts-plain -h sha256 -s 256
to
swap /dev/vg/swap SWAP "-c aes-xts-plain -h sha256 -s 256"
In the first case, the cryptsetup call during sysinit fails, since only '-c' was used as a parameter and the call 'cryptsetup -d /dev/urandom -c create ...' didn't make sense to cryptsetup.
This doesn't make sense to me either. It should work the way it is.
----
Another slight annoyance comes from the lines (from rc.sysinit)
# isLuks only gives an exit code but no output to # stdout or stderr. if $CS isLuks "$2"; then open=luksOpen a="$2" b="$1" fi
It's not true that there's no output; I get the message "Device /dev/vg/swap is not a valid LUKS device." every time I boot :)
Okay, that one is easy.
