[Bug 1028668] Re: bootwait option does not work for swap partitions (needed for encrypted swap)

[rivode]

My partitions look like this:

 LUKS -> LVM -> ( ROOT, SWAP )

I'm asked for the passphrase for LUKS, but swap isn't activated at boot.

I edit /etc/init/mountall.conf from this:

    exec mountall --daemon $force_fsck $fsck_fix

to this:

    mountall -v $force_fsck $fsck_fix
    swapon -a -v
    exit

Swap is now active at boot, and the "Hibernate" option now appears in
the system menu (after enabling hibernate in polkit).

I'm running Raring, but I had to mess around during installation to get
encrypted root since the live cd installer doesn't seem to handle this
setup.

Title:
  bootwait option does not work for swap partitions (needed for
  encrypted swap)

Status in “mountall” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  I set up a fresh ubuntu with the alternate installer. I have a
  separate /boot, an encrypted partition for LVM and an encrypted
  partition for swap.

  At boot, I'm asked my passphrase for the encrypted LVM partition. I
  briefly see a prompt for a passphrase for my swap, but then lightdm
  takes over and gives me a logon prompt.

  If I manually setup the correct mapping for the swap partition, I can
  (obviously) manually issue a swapon -a.
