[opensuse] Encrypted file system: disable mount on boot.
I have an encrypted partition on my laptop hard drive for company source etc. I only need it "occasionally" so I would like to disable the mount on boot. Its irritating that the vastly improved boot times of suse 10.3 are obviated by the need to come back and enter my password halfway through the boot (can't even go get coffee!). I've tried using the noauto option in fstab for that filesystem.. no dice. Any ideas? wcn -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Use the noauto option where it is due: in '/etc/crypttab'. More info, "man crypttab". If you don't, and you go for a coffe, you will find that boot timed out skipping that mount anyway :-p - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
