Hi. [Context: I ended up (twice) with an unbootable system, apparently because dm-crypt wasn't included in the initramfs.] Using my d-i usb stick, I was hoping to recover from it by mounting the crypted lvm through cryptsetup luksOpen … (which a quick google suggests), but unfortunately I end up with cryptsetup telling me to check for missing aes support in the kernel. udpkg -i \ cdrom/pool/main/l/linux-modules-di-amd64-2.6/loop-aes-modules* to the rescue, one may think. But on that (squeeze alpha1) image, the included version is 2.6.30-2-amd64, which doesn't quite help me getting to my root partition to see what's going on with dm-crypt WRT the “normal” initramfs. Now, trying to move on, I just checked packages.d.o for something matching current kernels but no luck: http://packages.debian.org/search?suite=default§ion=all&arch=any&lang=fr&searchon=names&keywords=loop+aes+di+amd64 rmadison indeed seems to confirm that there's no such thing as loop-aes-modules-2.6.32-3-amd64-di at this point. (And that seems to be true for other architectures, I tried 486 too.) Can this please be fixed? Also: Is there any way to make sure there's no (kernel) version mismatch between *-modules packages in the future? Mraw, KiBi.
