Description Ali Akcaagac 2012-09-21 15:53:03 UTC 
Hello

I've been running F17 here with latest updates and realized (over a period of some weeks now) that the kernel tend to crash entirely when trying to unmount an USB partition using truecrypt 7.1a

Unfortunately I can not provide any backtrace or logfile but I wanted to mention it here so in case this happens again that I get the chance to take a picture of the crash and put it online here.

More detail:

I have a crypted USB partition using truecrypt 7.1a (from their site) and the partition self has XFS as filesystem on it. Every now and then when I enter "truecrypt -d" in the terminal to unmount this device the entire Kernel says good bye.

The crash itself told me something about timing issues or so - not sure. Maybe this has been a known issue (if not then this problem is known now).

The problem can be closed. It has not shown up with more recent kernel versions. Maybe it was a temporary issue which got solved during further kernel development.
