Hi, what is the advantage of using /etc/crypttab? When I was using it, I got errors during shutdown: "stopping early crypto disks failed". This sounds sensible since the root-fs is encrypted. Now that I'm not using it, disks still get mounted on startup and the error during shutdown is gone. Is it ok to not use /etc/crypttab? I'd rather not use it, makes it easier for me to synchronise /etc between different clients. Thanks Markus My configuration: Debian Squeeze, cryptsetup 1.1.3, Kernel 2.6.32. Im booting using an initrd. /dev/mapper/root_crypt is mounted on / /dev/sda2 is mounted on /boot _______________________________________________ dm-crypt mailing list dm-crypt@xxxxxxxx http://www.saout.de/mailman/listinfo/dm-crypt
