[CentOS] luks encrypted - tell at boot to skip/ignore it - how?
Hi guys. How to tell grub/kernel to ignore, skip either all or a specific block device which is luks-ecrypted - would anybody know? I have a box (kvm) which had a "secondary" luks-encrypted disk which now is detached and Centos just hangs @boot waiting for that disk. many thanks, L.

Might also need "noauto" depending on your situation. crypttab(5) and mount(8) are your friends here.? Hope that helps!
