high, great works but i stumble a bit.

i have an usb stick working with the help from Dave infos. i followed on my pc the same logic:

For fstab, you can use the UUID for /boot but you need to use /dev/mapper/rootfs for / (root).
For grub, you need to add root=/dev/mapper/rootfs to the kernel options.
And in crypttab, you need to use /dev/disk/by-uuid/≶UUID> instead of UUID=.

and the mapper is not found :( any hints to debug this?
