Description of problem: When booting with more than one encrypted partitions there is a strange looking failure. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): f10-alpha, plymouth-0.5.0-6.fc10 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install with 2 or more encrypted partitions (/, swap, /home). In my case /, swap as LVM members. 2. Make each partition encrypted with separate password 3. Proceed with install Actual results: 1. A password prompt for /. The partition is decrypted properly. 2. The same prompt for swap, /home. After entering the password: Command failed: No key available with this passphrase Unable to access resume device (/device/for/swap) 3. Shortly after (after udev starts I think) another message prompt appears. It looks like the one in F9 (which comes from init I think). Entering the password there works as expected. Expected results: when entering the password in plymouth prompt secondary partitions are decrypted and the user is not asked again for the password. Additional info: see attached screenshots. Also tested with /, swap, /home - same behavior just you're not asked for /home's password at the beginning as it's not necessary
Created attachment 314321 [details] 1st message showing there's an error
Created attachment 314322 [details] 2nd prompt for swap's passphrase notice how the message appears at the top of the screen and it's easy to overlook this. Pressing <Enter> several times makes it re-appear below the current text and the successful decrypt is clearly visible.
Maybe it's more correct to change the summary to: fails to decrypt swap from the first time when on separate partition.
There was a bug where the second password would always fail if it was longer than the first password. Is that what you saw? There's been a number of fixes the password asking code, including a fix for the aforementioned bug, so I'm going to close this out. If you have anymore problems, though, please reopen.
(In reply to comment #4) > There was a bug where the second password would always fail if it was longer > than the first password. > > Is that what you saw? > Nope. Both passwords are the same size. i.e: root-pass, swap-pass, home-pass Re-opening until I test this with a newer release to confirm if fixed.
marking MODIFIED since fix is just waiting verification.
Can you please test this with beta, or one of the subsequent snapshot releases?
can't verify due to bug #468656. I can't perform the install.
Are you able to use the Preview to test this?
/home and / encrypted with 2 different passwords. Plymouth asked twice for the password for /home.
Ignore comment #10. /home and / encrypted with 2 different passwords, both on key slot 0. Plymouth asks only one time for password for /home then proceeds.
OK, then closing. Thanks for testing!
