Hidden UUID?
Hi folks,
maybe you can help. I am running into a strange problem.
It is the following:
My swap partition is a logical partition on an extended partition.
This swap was formerly luks encrypted and got an UUID beginning with
UUID=30e885.....
Then I deciced, to format the swap partitition and use it as a normal swap
partition. So I erased all keys (using cryptsetup erase /dev/sda5) and then
reformatted it with swapon.
Additionally I removed the entry from /etc/crypttab and edited /etc/fstab.
So far, everything worked fine, except next boot.
When booting, cryptsetup wants to open my other encrypted partitions and then
it is hanging, saying "searching for encrypted device UUID=30e885....".
I looked everywhere, but I found no entry, where the system gets this UUID.
Of course my swap partition now got another UUID, but why is cryptsetup still
knowing of the old UUID? What did I miss?
Thanks for any hints.
Best regards
Hans
