2nd Drive is being unlooked without knowing password #10

big-easy commented 11 years ago

It's quite strange to me - I've encrypted my 2nd Drive where my User-Data is located and ran your script. Curiously it did'nt ask me for the password of the encrypted volume - only for my User-Password. After that I recieved "Installed 100%" (or something).

I've booted and logged in with another User (whos Data is stored on the 1. Drive) - it didn't mount or decrypt my 2nd Drive (but asked me for the password) which is quite like expected. Logging in with my main User, it decrypts the Volume without knowing my password? The password isn't either stored in the keychain.

I've tried it a several time and it always works like described. How is that possible?

Okay now it's not working, I can't sign in anymore - I guess the Issue is, that I encrypted my Volume only few minutes ago before running your script. It seems it takes a while to encrypt the volume to a point, where it needs the password.

Now I ran the script again and that time I was asked for the volume password! Now it work's fine.

Glad to hear it worked. And yes, the encrypt command does take time (although the drive is still usable until it finishes). The Unlock installer must be run after the encrypt command finishes.
