I updated/ upgraded the system today and whatever broke LUKS when I 'apt-get dist-upgrade' and installed kernel 4.9.0-12-amd64 several months ago now breaks LUKS when I try to boot the kernel that I have been using prior and since -- 4.9.0-11-amd64. Fortunately, LUKS still works with my oldest available kernel, 4.9.0-9-amd64.


lsinitramfs will give you the content of the initrd

I was unable to understand your other suggestions, but tried to use this one:

2020-07-26 16:35:36 root@po ~
# lsinitramfs -l /boot/initrd.img-4.9.0-9-amd64 > lsinitramfs-l-initrd.img-4.9.0-9-amd64.out

2020-07-26 16:35:57 root@po ~
# lsinitramfs -l /boot/initrd.img-4.9.0-11-amd64 > lsinitramfs-l-initrd.img-4.9.0-11-amd64.out


The listings are very large:

2020-07-26 16:40:08 root@po ~
# wc lsinitramfs-l-initrd.img-4.9.0-*
  1243  11247 128364 lsinitramfs-l-initrd.img-4.9.0-11-amd64.out
  1243  11247 127485 lsinitramfs-l-initrd.img-4.9.0-9-amd64.out
  2486  22494 255849 total


And there are a lot of changes:

2020-07-26 16:40:50 root@po ~
# diff lsinitramfs-l-initrd.img-4.9.0-9-amd64.out lsinitramfs-l-initrd.img-4.9.0-11-amd64.out | grep '>' | wc
    977    9878  112569

2020-07-26 16:40:52 root@po ~
# diff lsinitramfs-l-initrd.img-4.9.0-9-amd64.out lsinitramfs-l-initrd.img-4.9.0-11-amd64.out | grep '>' | head

I doubt I can find the needle(s) in that haystack.


Any other suggestions?


David
