"CRYPTSETUP=y" is meant for special cases where the crypsetup initramfs hook doesn't detect an encrypted device that needs to be unlocked during initramfs. With setting "CRYPTSETUP=y" you can enforce cryptsetup inclusion in the initramfs. On most setups, this setting is superfluous. The cryptsetup initramfs hook script automatically detects that cryptsetup is needed and includes it into the initramfs. Now that you have a working system with cryptsetup in the initramfs, I'd be curious about the following: If you comment out "CRYPTSETUP=y" in /etc/cryptsetup-initramfs/conf-hook and recreate your initramfs with `update-initramfs -u` from your running system, is cryptsetup still included in the initramfs? You can check this by running the following command afterwards: $ lsinitramfs /boot/initrd.img-$(uname -r) |grep cryptsetup Cheers, jonas
