hi,
first of all you need an udev rules to recognize your pendrive in
/etc/udev/rules.d/10-local.rules.
then you need one or two script to do the work. i actually create 4 separate
script (because i use them from other places):
home-up, home-down, luks-up, luks-down. and my home-* scripts also copy an
ssh dsa key for root (so in this case my other scripts run as root has more
power
unfortunately the deadlock still exist and i don't know the solution.
