The sixth /etc/fstab field (fs_passno) must be zero so that fcsk >>will >>not attempt to check this partition. >> >> /dev/hda555 /tmp ext2 >>defaults,loop=/dev/loop2,encryption=AES128,phash=random/1777 0 0 >> ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ >>^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^ >>Third, run "mount /tmp" command and you are done. >> >>Octal digits after phash=random/ mount option specify initial permissions >>of >>file system root directory that gets created on the loop device. 1777 >>means >>read+write+search permissions for all and sticky bit set.
