linux-lts 3.10.16-1 unable to find /dev/sda2 crypt device

Hi,

I'm having a power management issue with the core 3.11.5-1 which is an upstream bug so I installed linux-lts 3.10.16-1. However when I try to boot into it it cant find /dev/sda2 cryptdevice.

I've tried mkinitcpio -p linux-lts and grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg but no joy.

The core kernel still boots fine and dmesg and journalctl dont seem to hold any clues.

I'm using and Asus EEE 1005.

/etc/default/grub
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet cryptdevice=/dev/sda2:root"

/etc/mkinitcpio.conf
HOOKS="base udev autodetect modconf encrypt filesystems keyboard fsck"

Any ideas what could be wrong or how I can find out?

Cheers.

Remove 'quiet' from the command line if you are troubleshooting. There are also other ways you can increase the debug level or start logging earlier - see the wiki on kernel command line parameters.

Please post grub.cfg and lsblk -f.

Try place 'encrypt' after 'udev'
Or remove autodetect
and run mkinitcpio -p linux
