"modules are normally loaded by udev (S10udev), your drive will already be mounted by then"
My drive will already be mounted if it is not an dm-crypt drive. If it is a dm-crypt drive it will be mounted by S26cryptdisks-early or by S28cryptdisks, depending. With the current design of the Ubuntu boot process, a dm-crypt root partition cannot provide any boot-time modules to udev because S10udev runs before the root partition is mounted, which means all boot-time modules need to be in the initramfs, which, in turn, means that udev needs to be able to load firmware out of the initramfs. [Which, incidentally, it appears to do in the most recent version of initramfs-tools / udev] -- udev needs to load before "Loading essential drivers" so firmware_helper will work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/183648 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
