Description Kevin Fenzi 2010-01-19 04:20:26 UTC 
With dracut-003 here I am never asked for my passphrase and boot dies with a 'cannot mount root'. 

Happens with any kernel and 003-1 and 003-2. 

Happy to provide more info. 

dracut-002-13.4.git8f397a9b.fc12.noarch works fine here. 

Diffing a working vs non working with lsinitrd I see:
