Bug#855085: [live-config-systemd] installing on a non live system with a luks partition renders the system unbootable



Package: live-config-systemd
Version: 5.20170112
Severity: normal

Installing live-config (with user-setup and live-config-systemd) on a non-live system combined with a luks (non system, just data) partition which is activated at early boot through crypttab renders the system unbootable.

At boot, first a start job gives a message it cannot find/activate the luks partition. After 90s the boot process continues with a message it is now in recovery mode but at the same time the luks passphrase input line is presented and I can enter passphrase (* do appear). Unfortunately the passphrase is not accepted, there is no error, seems like the enter key is not accepted. ^d and ^c also do not work. Only option is to reboot with ctrl alt del. After chrooting into the system with a live system and purging live-config, live-config-systemd and user-setup the system boots normally again.

Gonna check if live-config works with a live image combined with luks persistence.
