Supposedly that's a permission problem? From a root terminal, what's the output
of
ls -l -a /mnt/sdcard/mnt/mydrive
after mounting with truecrypt?

-rwx------ root root 1022 2012-06-23 22:15 sample.txt
Here's what I see with the permissions for /mnt/sdcard/mnt/mydrive
Before running truecrypt mounting script
Permissions: ---rwxr-x
Owner: 1000 - system
Group: 1015 - sdcard_rw
After mounted
Permissions: rwx------
Owner: 0 - root
Group: 0 - root
I tried to change permissions and owner using Root Browser or chmod, chown
commands, all failed.

Ok, it seems the internal SDCard is formatted with FAT32, so changing
permissions/owners are not allowed/supported. I'll keep researching and see if
I can mount the SDCard differently. Not a defect/bug of Cryptonite, you can
close this Issue.
Thanks!

Thanks for reporting. Not entirely sure this is a FAT32 issue though. Might be
a problem with the TrueCrypt code for Android.

Try mounting the TC volume using: truecrypt
--fs-options="uid=1000,gid=1000,umask=0002" volume.tc /sdcard/tc.

You sir are a genius! Adding the --fs-options worked perfectly. Thank you!!!

@pkalny: Thanks for reporting this fix. I've added it to the FAQ.

Actually, should set gid=1015 (which is the sdcard_rw group) so files can be
moved/copied to the mount point using file managers other than root explorer.
At least, that's how it is on my Nexus S.
