I know it doesn't help you anymore, but R4.1 avoids the whole problem by cleanly stopping crashed volumes when the computer is restarted: https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-core-admin/pull/397 Rusty -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQKTBAEBCgB9FiEEhLWbz8YrEp/hsG0ERp149HqvKt8FAmL5IwNfFIAAAAAALgAo aXNzdWVyLWZwckBub3RhdGlvbnMub3BlbnBncC5maWZ0aGhvcnNlbWFuLm5ldDg0 QjU5QkNGQzYyQjEyOUZFMUIwNkQwNDQ2OUQ3OEY0N0FBRjJBREYACgkQRp149Hqv Kt+itA/+JGWiBR8lvKB3usGW96cI8ty4BePclBivLLxN6zeC0KpAxZK14QywIgOL o0tguMM/H4Fc+F0ueRQymYCskzo/BWJlU06Fq9Bwp+re0p6Y6o0bzmx35e/mj8mb CrMWqboqEjFihpxGxvk5BR8PceUTWvxFGNYGPZZQejNbanbkFeTINUXzMNR/dMjX V0cIneqQtWcsJXBEBwS8KtMh+uHgumqgG+UcdymUuBU/FvwgrmOfOTSFrW/jgNEe MImex5y9im/xrQ4RSDCJVc+FJNvq9HGGePFccrVo9tnJ3WY4khuYEckSe2wIL/5y 8TKHe5pQMTUSCbIqGNIFBWF5cFDw3zOPXPQGDx7HMruJNTtOJXa7RzO4qgdV6rcj KMQeWVwKyZ2KyTYqJMY7M87c8IL9DFLmzZuGIQ/yTsw40uNoMdPpNTPgdGBTO0UB hIqvf8DL9OBbUnXOLmgVtMLp4UjNxV+6Kf2k5Qk+NZxahMblUlezHXj3B0UeLmML HcGW5N8ln+tUIcFHcrRNqZ6uf5CoWKZ47vNpedlLKHz2mXs2U6maFqg168A8tnAM iL/bRAit1rctIyX9R/kSvcebetQRIrY7Sci4GjlNTwcCKpXehedm7D87jgA2gIS0 Sv4eXSUPPliDZiVGp0y1utywDZVdWzu9LyS6tUrG+hnaQCB4E3o= =h1CV -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
