If have put it in rc.local like: sh /root/mount.encrypt.sh and the Script to mount my USB-Stick with the key look like: ~ $ cat mount.encrypt.sh #! /bin/sh # simple script # to mount the usb-stick with the encryption key # put this into you rc.local wherever it sits on you machine # # # sd card in the pmcia-slot DEVICE=/dev/hda1 MOUNTPOINT=/media/idedisk ## my usb stick DEVICE=/dev/sdb1 MOUNTPOINT=/media/Datenknecht if [ -e $DEVICE ]; then echo -n "mounting /home [$DEVICE as $MOUNTPOINT]" while (mount $DEVICE $MOUNTPOINT 2> /dev/null; [ $? -ne 0 ]); do echo -n "." sleep 1 done if [ -e $MOUNTPOINT/m70Key.gpg ]; then modprobe aes modprobe cryptoloop while (cat $MOUNTPOINT/m70Key.gpg |mount -p0 /home 2> /dev/null; [ $? -n e 0 ]); do echo -n "+" sleep 1 done umount $MOUNTPOINT echo " done." else echo " failed." fi fi Hope this helps Reinhard > > This is what I tried, but then I keep getting a message that /home > needs a file system check and is corrupt (this sounds logical, because > at this point the partition is neither opened nor mounted). > So it looks to me like a real catch-22. > TIA for any suggestions. > > Gabor Walter > Hungary > -- > fedora-list mailing list > fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx > To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
