Bug#290708: initrd-tools: dm-crypt devices initialized with wrong arguments for cryptsetup



Package: initrd-tools
Version: 0.1.76
Severity: normal

I use LVM2 on top of a dm-crypt device. With the initrd created by
mkinitrd the cryptsetup command is called with wrong arguments. The -s 128
and -h plain options are missing. The system won't be bootable. If I
hack mkinitrd to call cryptsetup with -c aes -s 128 -h plain then the
system will boot without problems.

Here is my /etc/crypttab:

crypt_vg1 /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part3 none cipher=aes,size=128,hash=plain

Maybe the information in /etc/crypttab should be used the same way as in
the initscript to contruct the command line for cryptsetup.
