I have a fesh install of CentOS release 6.6 on my laptop. I want to use a more secure config with /home crypted. But when this partition is mounted I cannot login anymore on my laptop. Only root can login. This occur at level 5 (graphic login) or 3 (text login). The message is "Cannot enter home directory. Using /." Logged as root I can create a new user (with useradd) and his home is created on this crypted partition. Logged as root I can issue a "su - anotheruser" in a terminal and access the home of this user on the crypted partition. The problem looks strange for me and google has not helped.... This how I build the crypted partition (following a tutorial, just changing ext4 with xfs): lvcreate -L 30G -n lv_home vg_portable badblocks -s -w -t random -v /dev/vg_portable/lv_home cryptsetup luksFormat /dev/vg_portable/lv_home cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/vg_portable/lv_home c_home mkfs -t xfs -L /home /dev/mapper/c_home The blkid command shows: /dev/mapper/c_home: LABEL="/home" UUID="1118317e-cc5a-4183-a498-21418f82e982" TYPE="xfs" In /etc/fstab I add: UUID=1118317e-cc5a-4183-a498-21418f82e982 /home xfs defaults 1 2 In /etc/crypttab I add: c_home /dev/vg_portable/lv_home none luks Thanks for your advices.
