dm-crypt:

Are dm-crypt boot messages written to a log?  dmesg doesn't seem to have 
them, and "grep -r sda1_crypt /var/log" yields nothing...


TIA,

David

Kernel dm-crypt uses standard kernel log facility, so all errors are
be visible in kernel log (but it is quiet if there is no problem).

Userspace (cryptsetup/LUKS) uses std out/std err it is upt to initsystem
to catch these messages (e.g. plymouth or systemd does this IIRC).
There is no direct option to use system syslog in cryptsetup.
