[Bug 434232] Re: cryptsetup prompt is overriden by upstart and xsplash in Karmic

[GOo]

I tried to do an install of karmic amd64 from alternate installation
disc with encrypted root, /var, /home, swap partitions on top of a
RAID10 fp2 4 disks array.

Results are:
System boots then xsplash starts asking me for the passphrase of the root partition. I enter the passphrase then I get to the console:

sreadahead main process terminated with status 1
....
enter passphrase to unlock /dev/mapper/home-data_crypt

Not able to do this since xplash suddenly hides the console prompt:

One or more of the mounts listed in /etc/fstab cannot yet be mounted
/home: waiting for /dev/mapper/home-data_crypt
Press ESC to enter a recovery shell

In the recovery shell I am not able to do anything since typing is nearly inhibited. Just got few random characters out of my keyboard.
So, same behavior here but also with encrypted root fs.
