Hello everyone,

I have recently (aka today) encrypted my Windows system partition
with Truecrypt. My system is booting fine (both Windows and Debian
sid), but I have the necessity of mounting the Windows partition when
booting Debian (all my files are there).

I found out that with a simple entry in /etc/crypttab this should be
easily done, but when I tried it, I got the following error:

[....] Starting crypto disk.../usr/sbin/cryptdisks_start: 1: export:
CRYPTTAB_OPTION_tcrypt-system: bad variable name


I thought it was a bad-something happening with the Debian version of
cryptsetup (2:1.6.1-1), so I downloaded and compiled the 1.7.0-git
version and tried to use it. The same error occurs

No, the cryptsetup binary version is fine. If you have system disk encryption,
you need 1.6.2 with fixes but otherwise the support is in 1.6.1 already.

What is missing is Debian init scripts/systemd/cryptsetup scripts  support
for new crypttab keyword.

Parsing of crypttab is not part of upstream cryptsetup so this report should
go into Debian bugzilla.

But if you are able to use systemd 206 as service manager, it should work
by default...
