NAME¶
cryptdisks_start - wrapper around cryptsetup that parses /etc/crypttab.
SYNOPSIS¶
cryptdisks_start <name>
DESCRIPTION¶
cryptdisks_start is a wrapper around
cryptsetup that parses
/etc/crypttab just like the initscript /etc/init.d/cryptdisks does and
starts the dm-crypt mapping that corresponds to
<name>.
Note that this wrapper passes
--key-file=- to
cryptsetup, so the
passphrase in any referenced key file must not be followed by a newline
character.
SEE ALSO¶
cryptdisks_stop(8),
cryptsetup(8),
crypttab(5)
