Stretch installer: cannot encrypt /home
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
I want to encrypt my /home directory but the Stretch installer will
not let be do it. I got so far as to create a RAID1 and then lvm2 to
create several logical volumes, but I could not encrypt the logical
volume for the /home directory.
In the overview of my partitions the one for my home directory reads
as follows:
LVM VG SOL1, LV home 2.0 TB lINUX device-mapper (linear)
#1 2.0 TB K crypto (SOL1-home_crypt)
Encrypted volume (SOL1-home_crypt) - 2.0 TB Linux device-mapper (crypt)
#1 2.0 TB K lvm
What I think I should be able to do now is to select the last line
above so I can enter the file system. the password and the mount point
/home. When I select that line nothing happens,
If I select "configure encrypted volumes", I am asked to save my
partitioning scheme, After doing so another window appears with two
choices, "Finish" and "Create encrypted volumes". Selecting the
latter asks me to select the devices to encrypt, but the one I want to
encrypt does not appear there.
Either way installer will not let me go any further.
Have others had this problem? If anyone found a solution I would
appreciate knowing how you did it.
Regards, Ken Heard
