https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=788882 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=788882#c2 --- Comment #2 from Neil Rickert 2012-11-09 00:00:23 UTC --- I have an encrypted LVM on my disk, where 12.2 is installed. To check whether crypto was working properly in 12.3M1, I tried: cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sda7 cr_lvm I was prompted for the key. I entered the key, and cryptsetup hung at that point. In short, "cryptsetup" appears to be broken, and that is the most likely cause for this but and for bug 788884. (I notice that I mistyped that other bug number in the prior comment). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

It hung after providing the encryption. I used CTL-ALT-F2 to get to a terminal session, mounted a local partition and copied both y2logs and y2start.log to a directory there.

Please also try to run cryptsetup manually:

I actually reported what happens with that in comment #2 above. Since that was on a different machine, I repeated the test on the same machine where I obtained the y2logs. To do that, I rebooted to rescue mode. That finished up in emergency mode, which might be another bug (I have not retested that). "cryptsetup" complained about the disk being read-only, so I could not complete that test. I restarted a full install. On the first screen, I used CTL-ALT-F2 to get a terminal. There, I mounted a local disk, did a cd to the directory with the y2logs file, and ran script. I then ran "fdisk -l" followed by "cryptsetup". The cryptsetup hung after providing the encryption key. I bailed out. That left me a "typescript" file with the session transcript. I shall attach "Bug788882.tgz" which is a gzipped tar of directory Bug788882 containing "y2logs", "y2start.log" and that typescript. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=788882 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=788882#c14 --- Comment #14 from Neil Brown 2012-11-22 00:28:07 UTC --- Could someone fix me simple instruction how to reproduce this? Maybe it is just a couple of cryptsetup commands? (I've never used cryptsetup before). There is one commit in the LVM2 git tree since the 12.3 version which mentions cookies: commit a820a68619c10108666f8093545837233c954046 Author: Peter Rajnoha Date: Tue Oct 23 11:40:53 2012 +0200 udev_sync: cookie_set=1 on each dm_task_set_cookie call Don't know if that is relevant though, but once I can reproduce it would be easy enough to test. I'm not sure when I'll find time for a more indepth search if that turns out to be needed. I doubt an strace will help at this stage. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
