af-fsfe, I understand your frustration at this regression. Please realize, though, that filesystem-level encryption of /home is at the bottom of a long list of disk encryption solutions that should be preferred over this in all but the most specific of corner cases:
- full-disk encryption of a single partition including / and /home - encryption of a single LVM VG containing both / and /home filesystems - disk-level encryption of /, /home on a separate unencrypted filesystem using ecryptfs for user-level encryption - passphrase-based encryption of /, with keyfile-based encryption of other partitions All of the above work in karmic; the only configuration that really doesn't work is passphrase-based encryption of disks other than the root partition. This is a bug, certainly, and will be resolved for the 10.04 LTS release; but it was not a blocker for the 9.10 release, with reason. -- cryptsetup prompt is overriden by upstart and xsplash in Karmic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/434232 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
