persistence not working with luks encrypted image file
patch from bugreport #700902 is applied
test configuration
Partition: Labeled: DEBIAN-HOME
formated as: ext2
contained image file named persistence
size: 210MByte
formated as: luks
contained ext2 filesystem
labeled: persistence
echo "/home"> ./persistence.conf
bootparameter: persistence persistence-encryption=luks,none
during boot no stop to enter passphrase
partition DEBIAN-HOME is mounted to /lib/live/mount/persistence/sda2
image persistent is visible in places, locked and need password to open
will be mounted to/media/persistence/
persistence.conf is present
the attached patch solves the problem
best regards Peter Schaefer
-- Package-specific info:
Luks-encrypted persistence file confirmed working here, similar to as
you describe, with your patch applied. Both full- and home-persistence.
Thanks, that is a most valuable functionality.
Using a syslinux usb pen: sdb1 (FAT32) for live-media and sdb2 (ext2,
not luks) with a LUKS persistence file labelled "persistence" containing
an ext2 filesystem also labelled "persistence", boot options
persistence-encryption=none,luks
live-boot_4.0~a7-1
If using findiso the live-media mountpoint is expected to be on
/lib/live/mount/findiso but is instead on /lib/live/mount/persistence/sdb1
I don't know about fromiso, probably will behave similarly
Although that did not prevent it from actually working, it was fixed
here by editing:
black_listed_devices="$(what_is_mounted_on /live/medium)"
to:
black_listed_devices="$(what_is_mounted_on /live/medium)
$(what_is_mounted_on /live/findiso) $(what_is_mounted_on /live/fromiso)"
