Hi Pete,
Hitting CR a second time when not seeing a reaction to the first CR
improved the situation for me, too. (Got the crypto partition mounted after 1-3
attempts most of the time)
cryptsetup has been updated, it seems there are several issues involved and
there is a partial fix:
Version 2:1.0.6+20090405.svn49-1ubuntu7.1:
* debian/cryptdisks.functions:
- wrap the call to /lib/cryptsetup/askpass with watershed, to make sure
we only ever have one of these running at a time; otherwise multiple
invocations could steal each other's input and/or write over each
other's output [...]
* debian/cryptdisks-udev.upstart: new, additional upstart job run once for
each block device, using the new crypttab_start_one_disk function,
triggered by udev; this doesn't eliminate the possibility of a race with
gdm when the decrypted volume isn't a 'bootwait' mount point (since gdm
kills usplash), but it does eliminate the race between udev and
cryptsetup.
Kind Regards,
Flummy
