On Arch Linux, the package 'cryptsetup' contains /lib/initcpio/hooks/encrypt, which provides a hook for mounting encrypted volumes from initrd. Does anyone know if there exists any effort on making this script accept options for cryptsetup from kernel cmdline? The current version only reads device and mapper-name, so one cannot open an encrypted root device with discard enabled. Looking at the code, I think this would not be so hard to implement (maybe just an addidional ':'-separated field in the kernel cmdline for options like --enable-discards), but If someone is already working on it I won't start the hack ;) Cheers, lynix _______________________________________________ dm-crypt mailing list dm-crypt@xxxxxxxx http://www.saout.de/mailman/listinfo/dm-crypt
