Binary package hint: gnome-mount
Please describe the problem:
When I create a luks encrypted drive, for example /dev/sdc I cannot mount it
via gnome-mount but it does mount via pmount and by hand (cryptsetup luksOpen
etc...) Gnome-mount evidently opens the luks encrypted container since I see
the mapper created however it is not mounted. The only error I see is an
unknown partition message when tailing /var/log/messages.
Gnome-mount DOES work when I mount an encrypted partition (/dev/sdc1) even if
that partition is of the whole drive.
This has only been tested on USB drives.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Use cryptsetup to create a luks encrypted volume on an entire usb drive
2. insert the drive
3. After entering the password see that the mapper device is created but not
mounted
Actual results:
The mapper device is created but not mounted
Expected results:
I would expect the drive to be mounted
Does this happen every time?
yes
