Whats user_xattr ?? |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
Anyway, if my entry 'should' work, do I maybe just need to chmod the |
| 23 |
/mnt/hate dir?? I seem to recall needing todo something like this in |
| 24 |
the past... |

Seeing that you are also dealing with an encrypted volume, it the drive |
| 27 |
a fixed or portable one? |
| 28 |

Here I have an usb-drive, with one partition encrypted. After posting, I |
| 30 |
plugged it in, only to be greeted by a 'encrypted volume detected' |
| 31 |
message, with a password promt. I don't use gnome or kde,so I was quite |
| 32 |
surprised. (I use thunar). |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
Anyway, I figured that it would take care of |
| 35 |
mounting the thing (it being hal) making my fstab entry irrelevant. |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
However, I wasn't able to test, cause for what ever reason, my password |
| 38 |
does not get accepted, neither at this promt, nor when doing this |
| 39 |
manually. Has this ever happened to you?? I'm 100% certain that I'm not |
| 40 |
misstyping, and I 100% wrote the password down correctly... :( |
| 41 |
No data lost, as I was still setting things up, but this is quite |
| 42 |
shocking... |
