[Bug 541118] New: Encrypted crypto luks USB hard drive not detected
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=541118 Summary: Encrypted crypto luks USB hard drive not detected Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Milestone 7 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: SuSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Hotplug AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: toddrme13@gmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Created an attachment (id=319349) --> (http://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=319349) Output of fdisk -l User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.1.3) Gecko/20090909 SUSE/3.5.3-1.2 Firefox/3.5.3 I have two external USB hard drives. Both work fine under 11.1. However, for 11.1 one of them is not detected by either KDE 4 or nautilus. It does not appear in any list of connected devices in KDE or in the list of connected devices in nautilus. The other one does appear in 11.2, and both appear in openSUSE 11.1 (I am doing a dual-boot). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Plug in hard drive 2. Turn on hard drive Actual Results: Hard drive does not appear in the places list in Dolphin, KDE device notifier, or the nautilus "computer" area. Expected Results: Hard drive appears in the places list in Dolphin and the nautilus computer area, KDE device notifier pops up with device listed. I am using x86-64 in both 11.1 and 11.2, the desktop kernel in 11.2 and the default kernel in 11.1. The hard drive that doesn't work is a lacie usb 3.5 in drive, IDE I think, and the hard drive that does work is a seagate SATA 2.5 in drive in 3rd-party USB enclosure. Both are connected to the same hub. Both encrypted partions were made using the yast partioner utility in openSUSE 11.1 and contain ext3 partitions. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

But why did it return something in 11.1 but not in 11.2? Isn't something working in one version and not working in the next version a regression?
Auto-detection of storage devices and handling them is a very risky business. If you detect the wrong (left-over) signature and try handle it that way (mount it), you may destroy all the data on the device which belong to the new signature. For that reason we _always_ check for _all_ known signatures and if these conflict, we ignore all results and do not get any action which might be risky to data. Today it is required to provide _unique_ signatures to have auto-handling work. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
