I used qemu-kvm. The disk partition was identified as a raid member and bound to mdadm, the md array was identified as a luks member and bound to dm-crypt. When trying to boot with one disk missing, the system would not boot at all, which appears to be another bug ( mdadm won't activate the array degraded ). I couldn't get dm-crypt to bypass mdadm and decrypt the disk directly, and by all indications from SJR etc, this should not be possible since blkid correctly identifies the disk as a raid member, and cryptsetup is only called on things identified as a luks member.
Can you reproduce this in virtualbox with 12.04? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/531240 Title: silently breaking raid: root raid_members opened as luks To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-release-notes/+bug/531240/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
