This looks like fs corruption.  Boot a LiveCD if you need to and run fsck.ext4 
-c /dev/sdX.

If it comes up with errors you'll probably need to rerun fsck with additional 
options and hope that it fixes the corruption.

You may lose some data.

Good luck.

[gentoo-user] No access to encfs-encrypted directory

Hi,

On a extf4 formatted partition I have two directories (beside others,
non encrypted ones):

.crypt
crypt

.crypt contains the encrypted data.

I then mount the encrypted partionas as root with

mount -t ecryptfs /home/user/.crypt /home/user/crypt -o 
ecryptfs_cipher=blowfish,ecryptfs_key_bytes=56,ecryptfs_passthrough=n,ecryptfs_sig=,ecryptfs_fnek_sig=,ecryptfs_unlink_sigs,key=passphrase

(I blanked the sigs before posting)

This worked like a charmbut...

A local power fail switches my PC off while the encrypted directory
was mounted.

After rebooting I still was abler to execute the command given above
successfully, but two diorectorie below the directory 'crypt' show
like this:
