Not sure of /etc/crypttab entry on Ubuntu 18.04
I have been following the following guides:
http://www.cim.mcgill.ca/~anqixu/blog/index.php/2018/06/20/install-18-04-on-encrypted-partitions-xps15-cuda/
How can I install Ubuntu encrypted with LUKS with dual-boot?
I have created a 4G Swap Partition on the encrypted LVM partition as per the latter link however not sure of the entry to use in /etc/crypttab file.
If I run:
blkid | grep swap
/dev/mapper/vgroot-lvswap: UUID="12345678987654321" TYPE=swap
Does the entry need to be
vgroot-lvswap UID=12345678987654321 /dev/urandom swap,offset=1024,cipher=aes-xts-plain64
partitioning encryption swap

Your format is valid for entry in the /etc/crypttab
but update your UID
to UUID
vgroot-lvswap UUID="12345678987654321" /dev/urandom swap,offset=1024,cipher=aes-xts-plain64
And also make sure the name vgroot-lvswap
is the name you used when you ran sudo cryptsetup luksOpen .... name_of_device_mapper
!
Thanks with the slight adjustment things seem to be running nicely now.
