Hi Matt,
this pretty much depends on several things. First things is: Are the
ciphers and dm drivers built into the kernel or not.
Second, are they really in the initrd.
Third, at what point during the initrd does your distribution load them.
I personally use an initramfs which is built directly into the kernel
image, but this is not straight forward at all.
Concerning documentation, you'll need to check with you distribution,
since they do the policies where and when to load modules etc. .

Hi All,
I am trying to do some debugging on my system Re: dm-crypt at boot time. (IE
the kernel can't find my device-mapper root partition for finishing the
boot). What I am unclear is at what point dm-crypt is actually loaded by the
kernel, or by intrid. I haven't been able to find a run down of when it is
loaded, or what its role is during boot. Would someone please point me to
the resources I need to figure this out? Thanks all!
Cheers,
Matt
