[Bug 1273261] Re: Cryptsetup error during boot: /scripts/local-top/cryptroot: line 1: can't open /dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-root: no such file

 

I can confirm that this happened to me on a fresh install of Ubuntu
14.04.1 LTS via an expert mode install where I didn't really customize
any of the options that allows, on an older Core 2 Duo E6800 based
system with linux-server kernel choice, with triple drive raid 1 on 1TB
msdos partition tabled devices. Server was configured with a partition
setup where md0 is an unencrypted boot partition and md1 holds an
encrypted volume holding LVM volumes eith ext4 fs with just / and /var
and /srv partitions.

The setup program took at least 20 minutes to progress past the
detecting the CD image stage, though partitioning went fine (once I used
a Windows disk to wipe the existing partitions which were totally
screwing up the partitioner the first several runs through, that is).
Other than that, install went through without issue as far as I could
tell, and I didn't install anything extra other than SSH and local-only
postfix, or choose any weird options in the installer with the possible
exception of my partitioning scheme (which has worked fine for me on
other systems I installed before 14.04.1 LTS came out).

I was able after waiting a crapload of time to drop into a maintenance
shell, whereupon I ran mount -a, init 2, apt-get update, apt-get
upgrade, and am going to hope that this fixes it, however I'm not
holding my breath as I do not seem to see an initramfs or cryptsetup
update nor any seemingly related updates among the list of what it's
going to install. Nevertheless I'm going to try installing all updates
and rebooting.

Bug description:
  While booting cryptsetup outputs following error: /scripts/local-
  top/cryptroot: line 1: can't open /dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-root: no such
  file, seems to be not related to this particular installation as saw
  the same output on other machines, also seems to be nothing major as
  everything boots fine, so just reporting to let you know it's there.
