Hi.
It seems tries functionallity is back in the most recent version, having a
default of 3.
This should be changed to 0 IMHO, at least for those devices that are
required to boot (root and resume filesystems), as it makes no sense
for them to just stop trying after some failures.
Chris.

for security reasons and since cryptsetup upstream has a default of
three retries, i'm more inclined to keep the current default of three
tries in cryptdisks and cryptroot.
if anybody wants more retries, s/he can easily configure that in
crypttab.
