Unfortunately, I had to remove such feature because the problems became more frequents. However, I try to remember: By "default" eCryptfs configuration, I mean that I created the directory using the command 'ecryptfs-setup-private', I moved my firefox profile, and then I made a symbolic link (from ~/.mozilla to ~/Private/.mozilla). Firefox worked fine. I do not remember the kernel and ecryptfs version, it was an up-to-date fresh installation (if this can be useful) on both the laptops.
Thanks. Yuri -- fs corruption using ecryptfs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/303240 You received this bug notification because you are a member of eCryptfs, which is subscribed to ecryptfs-utils in ubuntu. Status in “ecryptfs-utils” source package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Dear community members, I would report a corruption in my partition ext3 happened 2 times on one computer and 2 times on another computer when the filesystems get unmounted during the halting process (Ubuntu 8.10, updated). A segfault appeared two times (one on the first computer and one on the second laptop) while the third and the fourth errors produced a lot of messages on the console (sorry but I did not note the messages) until I manually switched off the pc. After reboot, fsck get automatically launched and it finds several errors. Mostly it finds orphaned inodes that puts in lost+found. I checked the content and I guessed it was encrypted files (3DUfw and CONSOLE appear in the content of each recovered inode). Actually I use eCryptFS to store only my Firefox profile (using the default eCryptFS configuration). _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ecryptfs Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ecryptfs More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
