Public bug reported:
Using Ubuntu 11.04 Server with encrypted LVM and installed the Ubuntu-Desktop
GUI installed.
Unity is Disabled and using Classic Veiw.
I have encrypted the entire Ubuntu partition and the User /home...
I have been using this for a couple of weeks now and shutdown everynight.
I am now for some odd reason maybe the last update broke it; today Aug 11,2011
is the first day I got this issue, I am not sure the cause...
After booting it asks for my Passphrase to unlock the partition, which I type
in but after that I get:
Enter passphrase: **************************************************************
Reading all Physical volumes. This may take a while...
Incorrect metadata area header checksum
No volume groups found
Incorrect metadata area header checksum

/scripts/local-top/cryptroot: line 1: can't open
/dev/mapper/MachineName-root:no such file
cryptsetup: isw_abcdefghij_RAID0-1p5_crypt set up successfully
Next screen:
udevd-work [79]: inotify_add_watch(6, /dev/dm-5, 10) failed: No such file or
directory
udevd-work [79]: inotify_add_watch(6, /dev/dm-3, 10) failed: No such file or
directory
Gave up waiting for root device. Common Problems:
- Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline)
- Check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?)
- Check root= (did the system wait for the right device?)
- Missing modules (cat /proc/modules; ls /dev)
ALERT! /dev/mapper/MachineName-root does not exist. Dropping to a shell!
BusyBox v1.17.1 (Ubuntu 1:1.17.1-1-ubuntu1) built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.
(inintramfs) ls
dev init conf lib var etc sys tmp
root lib64 scripts usr sbin bin proc
(initramfs)
I can not find any files /var/logs, I can browse /proc and /root and ls
files in /proc which shows modules and cmdline files that for some
reason are showing as missing?
Is there anything I can do like mount the encrypted partition with a
Live CD to edit or copy certain files to allow Ubuntu to continue to
boot up to the Desktop?
Thanks in advanced.
