Hi, assuming /dev/sda1 is an LUKS/dmcrypt encrypted partition. The default elevator is "noop" (given in kernel command-line), but "cfq" is set for /dev/sda in /sys/block/sda/queue/scheduler. What elevator is used for the underlying /dev/mapper/dm-0 (sda1)? sys/block/dm-0/queue/scheduler contains "none", btw. Thanks, Heinz. _______________________________________________ dm-crypt mailing list dm-crypt@xxxxxxxx http://www.saout.de/mailman/listinfo/dm-crypt
