loopAES encrypted root problem
Dear All,
I have just switched to a new distro and wish to set up the same
encrypted root fs I had with Debian.
I am getting the following error when booting:
VFS: Mounted root (minix fs) readonly
Mounted /devfs on /dev
Freeing unsued kernel memory: 136k freed
kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k ext2 errno=2
Mounting /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 as /lib failed
My relevant details are:
SuSE Linux 8.2
Kernel 2.4.21 (have not tried other kernels with this distro)
loop-AES 1.7d
Grub, devfs, /boot on hda1, / on hda2
BOOTDEV=/dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part1
BOOTTYPE=ext2
CRYPTROOT=/dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part2
ROOTTYPE=reiserfs
CIPHERTYPE=AES128
USEPIVOT=1
INITRDONLY=0
SOURCEROOT=
DESTINATIONROOT=
DESTINATIONPREFIX=/boot
INITRDGZNAME=initrd.gz
USEDEVFS=1
My root fs mounts ok from my rescue partition.
I never encountered these problems last time around. Any help (or insults if
I've missed something basic) gratefully received.
