Bug#348147: cryptoroot-enabling capacity



Hi,

if you want to try the patches I've made in a really simple manner, you can try downloading:
http://www.hardeman.nu/~david/files/patches/debian/fix-cryptroot

It's a shell script, so make it executable after you've downloaded it and then run it as root. It will install the two cryptroot files under /etc/mkinitramfs and divert /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/functions before installing a new version of it.

After you've run the script, you need to make sure that you have an entry for your encrypted root partition in /etc/crypttab and then update the failing initramfs by running update-initramfs -c -u -t -k <kernel-version>.

Oh, and you should of course look trough the above script before you run it as root...just in case I'm malicious or just plain incompetent, as it could do nasty things....

Re,
David

PS
If you do try it, please let me know what the results are...
