I have a new installation of Ubuntu 16.04 and when installing I chose to encrypt my home directory.
However when Ubuntu loads up I get the following: -
Enter passphrase for disk cryptswap1 on none!
Been googling around and can't find out exactly what this is. Could someone explain what's happened here? Is that my swap partition being encrypted? What does the none mean?
If I just hit enter Ubuntu loads fine and I can't see anything that would indicate a problem.
Thanks!
EDIT
cat /proc/meminfo
shows SwapTotal: 32969212 kB
cat /etc/fstab
shows # swap was on /dev/nvme0n1p4 during installation #UUID=ea7af1d8-3253-4e22-9620-d460ebf86dec none swap sw 0 0 /dev/mapper/cryptswap1 none swap sw 0 0
so it looks like there's swap space there

I've had this problem before. If you checkcat /proc/meminfo
ortop
, you will probably find that you have no swap space. There are two solutions: (1) you can remake your swap without encryption or (2) diagnose the ecryptfs problem. Start by posting the relevant line from/etc/fstab
.

I've had this problem before. If you checkcat /proc/meminfo
ortop
, you will probably find that you have no swap space. There are two solutions: (1) you can remake your swap without encryption or (2) diagnose the ecryptfs problem. Start by posting the relevant line from/etc/fstab
.
