Problem with home=option since 3.8
I have an encrypted persistent home on an external usb harddrive. The home= option works perfectly with it in every version up to and including 3.7. Subsequent versions ignore the cheat code, launching me into a 'virgin' ramdisk. I can then sudo mount -t ext2 -o etc. and access the drive, but I sure would like to be able to do what I have done for several years now, which is type home=/dev/sda1 and after a bit type in my password and be in my persistent home as user Knoppix. I tried /dev/uba1in those versions when the drive was designated as such (I notice that in 4.0.2 we are back to sda1) but to no avail. I would really like some help with this. Just knowing it was no longer possible would be better than this uncertainty. Thanks for any help you care to give.
Yours-Tbobz
