Hi There is a bug in the script - there is: $VERITYSETUP create $DEV_NAME $DEV_PARAMS $VERIFY_PARAMS $2 >>$DEV_OUT 2>&1 && \ fail "activation" There should be "||" instead of "&&", so that the function fail is executed on failure. If I replace "&&" with "||", the script behaves as expected - it fails and writes this: # check_root_hash 512 9de18652fe74edfb9b805aaed72ae2aa48f94333f1ba5c452ac33b1c39325174 $SALT 1 sha256 2 [root hash][verify][activate][remove]verify fails FAILED VERITY header information for verity-hash UUID: 613837c4-6ca8-4add-a2e9-c1acfd5c8e96 Hash type: 1 Data blocks: 16384 Data block size: 512 Hash block size: 512 Hash algorithm: sha256 Salt: e48da609055204e89ae53b655ca2216dd983cf3cb829f34f63a297d106d53e2d Root hash: 9de18652fe74edfb9b805aaed72ae2aa48f94333f1ba5c452ac33b1c39325174 Verification failed at position 3072.

It is based on the verify-compat-test script.
