Hello,
While working on a custom livecd (based on Kubuntu 9.10 LiveCd) I
stumbled upon a 100% reproducible bug (or better missing feature to go
to a wishlist):
- boot from the livecd
- create a new user with admin rights and encrypted home
- logout ubuntu
- login with new user
- copy a binary (e.g. my_binary) into the home folder of the new user
- run it. Fails with: my_binary: Function not implemented (and $? reports error code 126).
Bug still holds when using a casper-rw partition for persistence and storing there the profile of the new user between reboots.
A somewhat related issue concerns executing "ls -l" within the encrypted home: same response for each file/folder but prints results fine and returns no error code ($? is 0).
I changed also the kernel and remastered the cd but with same results. (2.6.31-14 was the original kernel and 2.6.31-20 the new one).
Thanks guys and hoping to here from you soon,
Linus
