Description Lenz Grimmer 2005-08-30 20:08:15 UTC
Thanks for fixing BUG#104441, which now encouraged me to give this another try.
I have an encrypted home directory on LVM (/dev/system/cryptohome) that I wanted
to mount to /home using the custom partitioner during the initial installation.
Unfortunately this still does not seem to work - when YaST attempted to mount
that partition, I got a quite unhelpful error popup window that informed me that
the mount failed because of "Error -3003". After the installation, there was no
/etc/cryptotab. This is how it looks like for SUSE 9.3 (which works):

[SNIP]
/dev/loop0  /dev/system/cryptohome /home          reiserfs   twofish256
noatime,data=journal,acl,user_xattr
[SNIP]

Maybe this is something similar to bug#113322.
I will look into this next week, this week I am in Prag and cannot do too much.

BUG#113524 is probably a duplicate of this one, too.

Handling of encrypted LVM LVs in instsys was broken in libstorage.
