 A user might enter the passphrase quite late and the timeout may happen wh=
 ile
 cdgconfig decrypts the device. Cdgconfig should not be killed in that stag=
 e.
 
 Also, the follow-up problems are not solved. The two services /etc/rc.d/fs=
 ck
 and /etc/rc.d/mountall will fail accessing /dev/cgd*.
