dmcrypt should start before partitions get mounted

Using dmcrypt with openrc 0.2.2 isn't working as expected.

The system:

• Gentoo Linux
• Baselayout 2.0.0
• OpenRC 0.2.2
• /etc/init.d/dmcrypt from sys-fs/cryptsetup-1.0.5-r1

What's wrong:

• partitions get mounted before dmcrypt could "luksOpen" them
• the keymap is not loaded before dmcrypt asks for the password -> if you are not running "us" keyboard but for example "de" you have to guess where the correct extra chars like ; or { are.

Current boot order:

1. mount partitions
2. run dmcrypt
3. set keymap

Expected boot order:

1. set keymap
2. run dmcrypt
3. mount partitions

The attached picture shows that the partitions get mounted before dmcrypt runs. The picture is a few days old and does not use openrc 0.2.2 but an older version. As you can see the keymaps were loaded before dmcrypt. This changed in recent versions! (Yea, I wanted to open this bug for a few weeks now...)

I've looked at this a little and think the problem is with the dependencies in the cryptsetup and devicemapper scripts, which are Gentoo addons. Could you open a new bug at bugs.gentoo.org please and we'll take it up there?

I opened a bug in Gentoo's bugzilla and added you to CC.
