Package: cryptsetup
Version: 2:1.3.0-3
Severity: wishlist
Hey,
this is a wishlist bug but it might be upgraded to minor.
In some specific situations, people won't be able to boot their machine:
* they use encrypted root
* they use a passphrase
* they use a usb keyboard
* they use MODULES=dep in initramfs.conf
What happens in that, with MODULE=dep, the usb modules (mainly usbhid
and uhci_hcd or similar) won't be added to initramfs, so people won't be
able to type their password.
It's not too much of a big deal since:
* people using encrypted root are (I guess) mostly on laptops, where the
keyboard is still often using ps/2 or similar (at least it is on
thinkpads :)
* the default is MODULES=most
But it'd still be nice if switching to MODULES=dep on those boxes would
still work. I'm not too sure if there's a way to detect how the keyboard
is plugged and add usb modules if needed. Adding them unconditionnally
might now be possible either.
Regards,
