Also note that both sda2 (/) and sda4 (/home) are encrypted using the same passphrase and usually when this problem appears systemd asks for the password twice. Once for sda2 and another time for /dev/mapper/luks-dc2f4b9c-4c04-4ae6-a193-f788b09c6ece which maps to sda4. Normally I only have to enter the passphrase once. Hi Stefan, add these to your boot parameters: log_buf_len=1M systemd.log_level=debug systemd.log_target=kmsg and when you reproduce the bug, save the output of dmesg.

This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database. Reassigning to the new owner of this component. Is this still an issue or can this bug be closed? I'm not sure, it was so annoying that I re-installed with a single encrypted partition. Comment 1 indicates this is just yet another symptom of bug 720178 thus closing as duplicate. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 720178 *** |
Created attachment 528037 [details] screenshot.jpg Description of problem: About every 10th boot systemd fails to properly mount the encrypted /home partition. I've seen this with f15 already but wasn't sure if I had messed up a configuration file. Now with a clean install of f16 beta it still happens. After entering the password for the home partition in plymouth the screen goes black. After pressing escape the screen says Starting /home aborted because a dependency failed See screenshot for complete screen output Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): systemd-36-3.fc16.x86_64 How reproducible: happens about every 10th boot Steps to Reproduce: 1. enter /home password in plymouth Actual results: boot fails asking for root password (maintenance mode) Expected results: successful boot Let me know what debug output would be useful to debug this.
