I have decided to give encryption a shot and I have started with some bootable usb disks I have as emergency/recovery media.
Everything works and partitions seem to mount just fine, but during boot in the fsck fase, root is apparently checked twice and home apparently doesn't get checked.
root: clean, 177630/524288 files, 1430174/2097152 blocks boot: clean, 34/65536 files, 50998/262144 blocks root: clean, 12450/2162688 files, 7055618/8649728 blocks
Using dumpe2fs to check how many blocks my root and home volumes have I can confirm that the first root line really corresponds to root and the second root line corresponds to home.
Does anyone know if this is a (known) bug or am I missing something?
My partition/volumes setup is as follows:
boot luks -lvm --root --swap --home
menu.lst: title Arch Linux root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-linux root=/dev/lvmvol/root cryptdevice=/dev/disk/by-uuid/d9cfc224-4ece-489b-a231-f5a5a876354f:luksvol ro quiet initrd /initramfs-linux.img
fstab: UUID=b4a938a4-1a49-42dc-9535-472efcccc264 /boot ext2 defaults,noatime 0 1 /dev/lvmvol/root / ext4 defaults,noatime 0 1 /dev/lvmvol/home /home ext4 defaults,noatime 0 2 /dev/lvmvol/swap none swap defaults 0 0

I suppose everything is fine except that your home partition has label "root". tune2fs -L home /dev/path/to/home -- Best regards, Chris O< ascii ribbon campaign stop html mail - www.asciiribbon.org
