Hi, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
On a extf4 formatted partition I have two directories (beside others, |
| 4 |
non encrypted ones): |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
.crypt |
| 7 |
crypt |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
.crypt contains the encrypted data. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
I then mount the encrypted partionas as root with |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
mount -t ecryptfs /home/user/.crypt /home/user/crypt -o ecryptfs_cipher=blowfish,ecryptfs_key_bytes=56,ecryptfs_passthrough=n,ecryptfs_sig=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX,ecryptfs_fnek_sig=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX,ecryptfs_unlink_sigs,key=passphrase |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
(I blanked the sigs before posting) |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
This worked like a charm....but... |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
A local power fail switches my PC off while the encrypted directory |
| 20 |
was mounted. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
After rebooting I still was abler to execute the command given above |
| 23 |
successfully, but two diorectorie below the directory 'crypt' show |
| 24 |
like this: |
| 25 |

| 33 |
|
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
Trying to cd into logdata or .process fail. |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
Is there any chance to recover from this and if yes: how ??? |
