[Bug 465177] New: post installation: no mounting encrypted partitions
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=465177 Summary: post installation: no mounting encrypted partitions Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: bluedzins@wp.pl QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- post installation: no mounting encrypted partitions While installing OS there is a valid option to encrypt this or that partition, for example /home. When the main installation stage is finished there is post installation process (after booting up this time from HDD). And in case of encrypted /home it displays just message that there is partition with mount point /home but it is not mounted, so if it is OK to continue with creation of user accounts. Well, of course it is not mounted because it takes a password to mount it. And all it takes is asking not user if she/he wants to continue, but asking about password. Opensuse should support its own solutions! And I don't think it it so easy for regular user to reboot the system in runlevel 3, unmount /home, move all users directories, mount /home, move dirs back. Not mentioning a bit of panic when newly installed system cannot start because of lack of any user account. I consider this major severity, but on the other hand no data had been lost so far, so I leave to default. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
