Package: live-boot
Version: 3.0.1-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Hello,
this bug is about live-boot and luks persistence, I've tried to build
minimal live builds with suggestions from people on the channel and they
worked fine (sid builds), but whenever I permitted apt to
pull recommends packages I was unable to have persistence working.
I also found similar errors on the mailing list but no fix: 1
The relevant boot message is this one:
' Begin: Running /scripts/live-realpremount ... done.
Begin: Mounting "/live/medium/live/filesystem.squashfs" on "//filesystem.squashfs" via "/dev/loop0" ... done.
Enter passphrase for /dev/sdb2:
mount: mounting Loading on /live/persistence/Loading failed: No such device
sort: /tmp/custom_mounts.list: No such file or directory
/init: line 1: can't open /tmp/custom_mounts.list: no such file
rm: can't remove '/tmp/custom_mounts.list': No such file or directory
umount: can't umount /live/overlay: Device or resource busy
done.
Begin: Configuring fstab ... done.
Begin: Preconfiguring networking ... done.
notice the "mounting Loading", message.
I supposed that something was screwing the return value of open_luks_device
so I wrote a possible patch, that in my case resolves this issue.
thanks
best regards
