You mean the initramfs created by debian-installer? Have you tried recreating the initramfs from the installed system? 'update-initramfs -u' recreates the initramfs for latest installed kernel. If you have cryptsetup installed and an encrypted rootfs, cryptsetup should be added to the initramfs automatically. If it doesn't, please file a bug against cryptsetup to the Debian bugtracking system (bugs.debian.org). In case you file a bug, please do the following in advance: * change the shebang in /usr/sbin/mkinitramfs to '#!/bin/sh -x' * run 'update-initramfs -u >/tmp/mkinitramfs.log 2>&1' * attach '/tmp/mkinitramfs.log' to the bugreport * (don't forget to change back the shebang of mkinitramfs afterwards) Cheers, jonas
