Dear systemd and dracut folks,

with Debian Sid/unstable, using plain device names like /dev/sda1 in /etc/fstab and /etc/crypttab the LUKS passphrase has to be entered twice. Once it asked by dracut and once by systemd. I did not yet try with UUIDs and ask first if that is an error?

Thanks,

Paul

Hmm, plain crypt devices are difficult to recognize.

Do you have both fstab and crypttab in the initrd in the exact same version as on the host?
