Hi guys.

I am trying to manually mount an encrypted Trisquel partition with a live-CD. This is what I have managed to do so far:

My crypted partition is in /dev/sda6. After runnin the following command,

sudo cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sda6 crypthome

I could find my "crypthome" in /dev/mapper/crypthome but I could not actually mount it with

sudo mount /dev/mapper/sda6 /mnt

All I got was an error:

mount: unknown filesystem type 'LVM2_member'

Can you help me with this?

This helped a lot. Now I can mount it. Thanks! Although I had to run:

sudo cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sda6 crypthome

before following the instructions. The vgscan command would not find anything unless I did for some reason.

Based on:

“sudo cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sda6 crypthome”

Shouldn’t

“sudo mount /dev/mapper/sda6 /mnt”

be

“sudo mount /dev/mapper/crypthome /mnt”

@oldfolio: yes, that is what it is supposed to be. My mistake. My typo. Still got the same error though.
