Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: cryptsetup
--[ Ubuntu release ]--
Description: Ubuntu 8.04
Release: 8.04
--[ version of package ]--
2:1.0.5-2ubuntu12
--[ Expected to happen ]--
When booting my laptop ubuntu is to ask the luks passwords of each and every
file system (2 in my case) just once inside of usplash and hide all the
nastiness it involves
--[ What happened instead ]--
When I boot my laptop it asks for the password of the root file system in
usplash and then switches back to a console.
There it asks for the password of the swap device. luksopen works like a
charm and I get a message saying something allong the lines of
"/dev/sda5 contains data - cryptsetup failed".
Then it asks for the password of the swap device again. cryptsetup does
its thing again, gives the same complaint and the machine boots
perfectly with swap enabled.
Given the fact that this is a laptop, I have to boot daily. You can
understand this is becoming somewhat of a nuisance.
I would like to give you the full message(s) of what ever happens in
boot. However /var/log/boot is empty (e.g.: It states "(Nothing has been
logged yet.)") and scrolling through the giant list of boot messages on
TTY8 is impossible. It will no longer adhere to the shift-pg up command.
--[ Request ]--
Could you please:
a) Tell me how to turn on boot logging so that I can supply a more detailed and
complete description of this bug
b) Start investigating the problem.
Many thanks in advance,
