Hi,


My desktop system (amd64) is using full disk encryption.
I installed version 3.21 (now at 3.21.3) and it was working great until I d=
id a 'apk upgrade'.
This upgraded the kernel and /boot/initramfs.

At the next boot I could no longer boot.

A lot of messages regarding 'nlplug-findfs: uevent' are show in the screen.
They are very quick and I can't find them in any log.

The system stops saying that I'm in a single user mode, to press exit, but =
cannot type anything.
Have to hard reboot.
Then at the next time, maybe I'm lucky to type the 'exit' and the boot proc=
ess continues, although it continues to show similar nlplug-findfs messages.

At the end of these messages, a line like this is shown:
nlplug-findfs: modaliases:247, forks: 151, events: 851, total bufsize: 1538=
49.

/sbin/mkinitfs is at VERSION=3D3.11.1-r0

What should I do to fix this issue?
Could I have prevented it somehow?

Thanks in advance,
