Public bug reported:
After upgrading from 18.04.1 LTS to 18.10, all reboots of the system
give a boot screen with the error:
"cryptsetup: Waiting for encrypted source device /swapfile..."
After a minute or so, the graphical boot screen with that message is
replaced with a console screen reading:
"ALERT! encrypted source device /swapfile does not exist, can't unlock
cryptswap1.
Check cryptopts=source= bootarg: cat /proc/cmdline
or missing modules, devices: cat /proc/modules; ls /dev
Dropping to a shell
BusyBox v1.27.2 (Ubuntu 1:1.27.2-2ubuntu4) built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.
(initramfs) _"
Typing exit at the initramfs prompt gets the boot to continue. The boot
continues to a working system and graphical login.
The system was configured in 18.04.1 LTS to have encrypted home
directories and no swap file.
It looks like the /etc/fstab got a new swapfile line somewhere during
the upgrade process. However, commenting that out and rebooting does not
affect this issue.
