problem with cryptsetup
Hi all.
i've created an encrypted volume with the following commands: Quote:
When I dismount this volume and try to remont, I got this error: Quote:
and in dmesg: Quote:
Now I'm on Linux Mint 10. The only difference is that now I've an ext4 root partition (/). This can be a problem? Thankyou. |

What commands are you using to remount after the initial file creation? It has been a while since I have done this, but I recall the commands are slightly different.
I have attached a couple of script files to this post, one for mount and unmount that work with ext4. You will at least need to change the name of the volume, which in my case is disk.img and double check the name of the names of the underlying files. In the script, it creates a /dev/usbkey and mounts the file system to /media/encrypted. Note, these scripts are modified versions of one originally found on an Ubuntu wiki for creating encrypted volumes. The wiki page might have some helpful information. |

Anyway, I've followed your commands: Quote:

I am not sure I fully understand your reply. The scripts that I attached were just to mount and unmount an existing ecryptfs volume, not to create one. Here is the link that I followed initially. It is based upon the idea that you want to store GPG keys in an encrypted volume on a USB stick, but the technique followed should be the same.
