Hi,
I'm booting on 4 encrypted devices, opened as LVM PVs, and use the LVM
mirroring feature for the LVs (including rootfs).
Trying to boot with a missing drive triggers the 'panic -r "ALERT!
${cryptsource} does not exist. Dropping to a shell!"' error, although it is
possible to boot without this device. (Especially in my case where the missing
device had no LV segment at all anymore.)
I propose the attached patch to skip the device if we exit the shell without
fixing the problem, instead of looping in the panic shell.
Regards
