Public bug reported:
I created an encrypted swap partition (as I've done many times), but
cryptsetup, when called from /etc/init.d/cryptdisks-early fails and
stalls.
The only way to boot is to press ctrl-alt-dell at that point and it
resumes booting (without adding the swap partition).
I added a "set -x" to check where the boot process stalls and it does
after issuing:
cryptsetup -c aes-cbc-essiv:sha256 -s 256 -h sha256 --key-
file/dev/urandom create cryptoswap /dev/sda4
I tried to issue the command manually and it simply says:
"command failed"
I disabled the encrypted swap on my other machine, removed the device
from device mapper, run the same command and it run OK.
I don't know why it's not working on my notebook...
