Hi, I am trying to get encrypted swap working. Can somebody please tell me why I get "Warning: exhausting read requested, but key file is not a regular file, function might never return." even though I created a non-LUKS partition and specified a key size? I do the following: cryptsetup -c aes -s 256 -d /dev/urandom create swap /dev/hda2 which works fine. Then I do: mkswap /dev/mapper/swap swapon /dev/mapper/swap which also works fine. I add the following to /etc/crypttab: swap /dev/hda2 /dev/urandom -c aes -s 256 and: mkswap /dev/mapper/swap swapon /dev/mapper/swap to my boot scripts. I also comment out the swap device in /etc/fstab. As soon as I reboot I get the aforementioned warning while booting and have to use a boot CD to be able to boot my machine. Please CC any replies to this address as I'm not subscribed.
