I setup encrypted swap using essentially this line in /etc/crypttab cswap /dev/sdaXX /dev/urandom swap with fstab /dev/mapper/cswap none swap defaults 0 0 It works fine except I notice when it boots I get a message like this: Red Hat nash version 6.0.9 starting Unable to access resume device (/dev/mapper/cswap) Then boot proceeds and machine comes up ok. # swapon -s Filename Type Size Used Priority /dev/mapper/cswap partition 2096440 0 -1 So it seems to work anyway. Is this mkinitrd needing updating as in : https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=124789 If so - can we get this into F7 ? thank you
