Public bug reported:
Running Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, upgraded from a 15.10 that did not show the
issue.
Initramd fails at setting up the encrypted /usr partition.
At the (initramfs) prompt the following command is accepted and succeeds at
decrypting the partition:
cryptsetup --key-file /root/etc/keys/sda5_usr open --type luks /dev/sda5
sda5_usr
After entering the above command and pressing <Ctrl>+<d> to exit the initramfs
shell, system boot resumes and completes successfully.
/etc (in the initramd) does not have the crypttab file, which is present in the
decrypted and mounted root filesystem in /root/etc.
The problem manifests itself regardless that in /etc/initramfs-
tools/initramfs.conf MODULES=most or MODULES=dep is set before
generating the initrd.
Terminal output of the failed boot up to the initramfs prompt:
