Package: gnome-mount Version: 0.8-2 Severity: normal I tried to create an LUKS-encrypted partition with cryptsetup. The partition should span the complete /dev/sdd, a 750 GB GPT-based disk. I followed http://www.saout.de/tikiwiki/tiki-index.php?page=EncryptedDeviceUsingLUKS which worked well. After Step 5 (Mount the Filesystem) the volume showed up in Main Menu -> Places and computer:/// with correct size, name, everything fine. Next I added the necessary lines to /etc/fstab (for /dev/mapper/sdd1) and /etc/crypttab to get the partition mounted on boot with password prompt.
After reboot, the partition is mounted correctly, but Places only shows an unmounted 750 GB Medium. Mounting it through Nautilus or Places fails. Removing the /etc/fstab entry and rebooting still gives an unmounted, unnamed media, but allows to mount it. Next I tried to remove the crypttab entry as well. After running luksOpen, /usr/lib/gvfs/gvfs-hal-volume-monitor spawns gnome-mount for /dev/dm-0 which prompts for admin password to mount the disk. If provided, the partition is mounted, once again without a label. At this step, an entry for /dev/mapper/sdd1 in fstab does not change gnome-mount‘s behavior. Hence I determined the UUID of /dev/dm-0 and added an UUID-based fstab entry. Now the automatically called gnome-mount fails after luksOpen with a permission error. Now I re-added the crypttab entry. Along with the UUID fstab entry, I get an automatically mounted volume /dev/dm-0 without a name. This is a working, ugly workaround. The main problem is that using crypttab and fstab to automatically mount the volume on boot does not work. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-1-486 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages gnome-mount depends on: ii eject 2.1.5+deb1+cvs20081104-6 ejects CDs and operates CD-Changer ii gconf2 2.26.2-2 GNOME configuration database syste ii hal 0.5.12~git20090406.46dc48-2 Hardware Abstraction Layer ii libatk1.0-0 1.26.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.9-12 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcairo2 1.8.6-2+b1 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libdbus-1-3 1.2.16-2 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib 0.80-4 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libfontconfi 2.6.0-4 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.3.9-4.1 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libgconf2-4 2.26.2-2 GNOME configuration database syste ii libglade2-0 1:2.6.4-1 library to load .glade files at ru ii libglib2.0-0 2.20.4-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgnome-key 2.26.1-1 GNOME keyring services library ii libgtk2.0-0 2.16.1-2 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libhal-stora 0.5.12~git20090406.46dc48-2 Hardware Abstraction Layer - share ii libhal1 0.5.12~git20090406.46dc48-2 Hardware Abstraction Layer - share ii libnautilus- 2.26.3-1 libraries for nautilus components ii libnotify1 [ 0.4.5-1 sends desktop notifications to a n ii libpango1.0- 1.24.5-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libxml2 2.7.3.dfsg-2 GNOME XML library gnome-mount recommends no packages.
