Sorry Scott, but I have to disagree. That I've purged cryptsetup is not the point here. But I fully understand that you can't overview all these bug reports opened after the recent change in the boot system. Cryptsetup was only installed to manually mount a luks partition, which is not one of the important system partitions.

The good news is that I could finally fix this problem this morning :-)

The cause for the problem and the solution are trivial. All my partitions are on an LVM volume. The device names are for instance /dev/mapper/apus-root. I configured this scheme with the alternative installation CD. Later, using system-config-lvm, I set up a new partition on the LVM for the /home area. This program adds a line to fstab too - and it reference the device /dev/apus/home (as you can see above in my fstab). It worked this way until mountall was introduced. I'm not sure if it is a valid name, though. So please have a look into this case, if either my fstab was not consistent with the standard of if mountall is missing a possible configuration.

Changing /dev/apus/home to the UUID solved my problem. I'll set this report to "status confirmed".
