Is there a way to skip mounting an encrypted filesystem (RH 6.1)?

Hello David,

Check /etc/fstab for the filesystem's mount-point and add the option "noauto" to the fourth field (options)

Succes

Met vriendelijke groet / kind regards,

Hello,

When booting in text mode, RH6.1 asks for the password for an encrypted
filesystem.

We don't want to mount it, but skip mounting it!

Unfortunately, there does not seem to be a way to say so. The password
entry query reappears infinitely often!

This is unlike in Fedora, IIRC, 3 passes and you are skipping....

Best regards
