F8: Cannot log in with home directory on LUKS partition

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I used F7 with my home directory on an encrypted LUKS partition for
some time. Today, I blew away my root partition and installed F8 on it.
Now, I can't log in with my user account. Whether logging in graphically
or on the console, the system complains that /home/user can't be found.
The console will log me in with / as my home directory, and kdm offers
to do the same but cancels the login if I say no.

Odder still, once I'm logged in, bash has no problem finding my home
directory. If I do cd ~ (as user) or cd ~user (as root), I'm put right
in to my home directory.

Here's the relevant partitions:

crypttab:
home_crypt /dev/sda5 none

fstab:
/dev/mapper/home_crypt /home/user ext3 rw,noatime 0 0

And here's the ls -l of /home:
drwx------ 45 user user 4096 2007-11-09 13:59 user

Like I said above, the partition is mounted correctly at boot time and
the files are accessible to my user, and even bash resolves ~ correctly.
It looks like the problem is just in login. Any thoughts?
