Mount a Data Drive
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
If you have an encrypted disk from a prior StartOS installation, you can mount its decrypted contents on a Linux computer.
|
|
|
|
.. warning:: This guide is advanced and should only be used when instructed by a Start9 technician.
|
|
|
|
#. Attach the StartOS data drive to your Linux desktop or laptop computer.
|
|
|
|
#. Ensure cryptsetup is installed:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
sudo apt update && sudo apt install -y cryptsetup
|
|
|
|
#. Enter the following command to reveal your disk's crypto_LUKS filesystems and their labels:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
lsblk --fs
|
|
|
|
.. figure:: /_static/images/backups/disk-mount-1-lsblk.png

|
|
|
|
We are interested in the services data so copy the long label ending with ``package-data``.
|
|
|
|
#. Take that label, prepend ``/dev/mapper/`` to it, and feed it to ``cryptsetup``:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
sudo cryptsetup open /dev/mapper/EMBASSY_NBMVE7OASAPTIIXNEPFN6PLAPJNT72F2XAVK43L2PGB6O2JRB35A-package--data startos_data_unlocked
|
|
|
|
You will be prompted for the password to decrypt the filesystem which is ``password``, and a new device mapping called `startos_data_unlocked` will be created.
|
|
|
|
#. Mount the `startos_data_unlocked` device at a path of your choosing. Here, we will use ``/mnt/startos_data``:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
sudo mkdir /mnt/startos_data
|
|
sudo mount /dev/mapper/startos_data_unlocked /mnt/startos_data
|
|
|
|
#. Inspect the decrypted files in preparation for copying via ``cp``, ``scp``, ``rsync`` or similar utility:
