could you give me a pointer on how to setup the encryption using LUKS? I am totally new to dm-crypt. Just used the first method that I found in the howto ....
Right now I am following Ricks advice and upgrading to 2.6.35 from a ppa repo.
Thanks,
Thorsten

if not, please use Ubuntu bugzilla - I saw strange reports which were never
reproducible on upstream.
(The bug seems like something we fixed long time ago.)
