I believe that this issue was fixed in the Jaunty installer.
If you can still reproduce this issue, please, by all means, re-open
this bug!

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).
