Bug#432534: initramfs-tools: Asks for LUKS passphrase before SCSI disk is ready (Linux 2.6.21, 22)
Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.89
Severity: important
My root filesystem is in an encrypted SCSI disk. It works without
problems with Linux 2.6.18, but with 2.6.21 or 2.6.22 versions the system
asks for the "LUKS passphrase" before the SCSI disk is ready.
Adding a "quick-and-dirty" delay in
/usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-top/cryptroot solves the
problem (http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cryptsetup/+bug/21878/comments/28).
Thanks,
Felipe.
P.S.: My disk is a Seagate ST336706LW, and the SCSI adapter is an
Adaptec aic7892 Ultra160.
