Package: dmsetup
Version: 2:1.02.74-7
Severity: grave
On my last reboot of my wheezy server, the crypto drives cannot be
mounted properly by the initramfs. I am not sure dmsetup is the culprit,
but cryptsetup didn't seem to have change since the last reboot, so I am
tempted to blame this on dmsetup.
Here's the error I get on boot:
cryptsetup: evms_activate is not available
Begin: Waiting for encrypted source device...
[...]
done.
Check cryptops=source= bootarg: cat /proc/cmdline
or missing modules, devices: cat /proc/modules; ls /dev
-r ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uuid/358cfab7-cbb2-4a09-927c-f89c64423536 does
not exist. Dropping to a shell!
[... busybox...]
(initramfs)
And indeed, the UUID entry is missing, very odd. This UUID should be
pointing to /dev/sda5, which exists, but not the UUID.
I am sorry if this is not filed properly (ie. not on the right package),
but it's the only one I could think of that seem to have been updated
since the last reboot, although it's hard to check because i'm still
struggling to boot that box right now... :/
Note that the system information below is probably outdated as I am
filing this bug from my laptop, which is also following wheezy, but
lagging behind (and so doesn't have this bug).
