This reminds me that when I had another encryption related problem with
filesystems created for suse 9.2, when using 10.1, Ludwig proposed I try a
patch he had, and the script he wrote and that will come useful again.

I'd propose that the above script be included somewhere on the distro, or
published as an alternative method for manually mounting older encrypted
partitions.

The script is no longer needed, boot.crypto is able to handle all
disk formats via crypttab/cryptotab now.

You can also tell it to manually mount a single partition, e.g.
/etc/init.d/boot.crypto start /secret
