Jonas,

great. I enhanced the documentation in README.Debian, but as i'm not a
native english speaker, I hereby ask you to proofread the text ;-)

Cryptsetup and udev
-------------------

 As a workaround for some yet-to-be-fixed race condition in kernel,
device-mapper or udev, cryptsetup currently runs udevsettle.

 This leads to problems if you invoke cryptsetup as part of a udev role.

rule (not role).

udevsettle waits until queued kernel/udev events are processed and the
'run programs' have finished. Due to cryptsetup itself being a 'run
programm' in this case, this ends in a deadlock.

program not programm.


 Therefore cryptsetup should be detached directly after invokation, so

invocation rather than invokation.

that it runs asynchronously.

Yup,  that's good - it's enough.
