I guess you are not using a fully automated install. Try using a preseed file with all the questions you need for a basic installation.

Status in eCryptfs - Enterprise Cryptographic Filesystem: New Status in “ecryptfs-utils” source package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Steps to reproduce: 1. take the netboot directory from the alternate CD and setup a tftp server with it 2. boot a system over the network using the attached preseed file 3. login with that user after installation is done At login the user cannot mount it's ~/.Private directory over to ~/. I fixed this by doing: 1. login as root 2. rm -fr ~user/.ecryptfs ~user/.Private 3. su - user 4. ecrypt-setup-private 5. changed .Private/Private.mnt to point to /home/user instead of /home/user/Private There might not be a simple way to provide a password from a preseed file since the password is encrypted in this file. Note: - when using the preseed file provided, do not provide any manual input (except if something fails and you need to hit continue). _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ecryptfs Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ecryptfs More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
