Hello,

I created a crypted partition and I wish to mount it during the boot.
I set it in the /etc/fstab
but I probably to load the appropriate module at the log time,
like dm-mod or dm-crypt ?
Where can I get them ?
How can I load them before /etc/fstab ?
Where can I find some doc ?

You should explain more about how you created an encrypted partition.
Yes I am using luks,
I encriptyed the partition

When the machine in booted without trying to mount the encrypted partition,
I just make a luksOpen, and then I can mount it.
During the install, I did not require any encryption.

I set the /etc/crypttab
home-crypt	UUID=5fcf268d-4729-4c70-949d-36e979241422 	none

I do not get any complain from this.

but with:

/dev/mapper/home-crypt /mnt/tmp ext4 defaults,noatime 1 2

in /etc/fstab, I cannot boot.

I got the UUID from:
blkid /dev/mapper/home-crypt


The normal way to do this is to select to encrypt when doing an install.
luks is used to do the encryption and prompting for a password is
integrated with the boot process.
