Bug#664463: /conf/conf.d/cryptroot is missing after fresh install

Hello,

After I installed
debian-live-6.0.4-i386-rescue.iso on a notebook,
the first reboot failed with "cannot find root
device" message.

I checked initrd.img-2.6.32-5-486 and
initrd.img-2.6.32-5-686 and found that
/conf/conf.d/cryptroot was missing.

Also, /etc/crypptab on root filesystem is empty
(header only).

P.S.

I used rescue mode of the CD, generated proper
entry for sda5_crypt in /etc/crypptab, and ran
"dpkg-reconfigure cryptsetup" to regenerate both
initrd images in order for this new install to
boot at all.

With best regards,
xrgtn

only first (686) one was regenerated, so I ran
"update-initramfs -u -k 2.6.32-5.484" too.

Now it boots.
