hi,

I'm setting up this old computer of mine and why not encrypt it. I have
done this on several computers before, but never have I gotten these
kind of errors.

When booting, cryptsetup segfaults. I can find no obvious reason why, I
have tried to recompile cryptsetup using different arch, but still the
same. It is build statically, USE=-dynamic is set and ldd just says "no
dynamic executable". But when trying to debug I copied the cryptsetup,
that is not working in the init, to a usb-device and tried to decrypt my
disk using a livecd, and this went fine.

So to summarize:
init - cryptsetup segfaults
in livecd env - cryptsetup ok
in gentoo system - cryptsetup ok



I'm not sure whether it was cryptsetup or gpg who had trouble but I seem to need these lines in my initrd to get things going:

rm /dev/tty
ln -s /dev/console /dev/tty
