I had Ubuntu 18 before and I reinstalled Ubunto 20.04 on /
partition. I didn't change /home
partition during the installation process. I set the same username and. password I had before.
When I try to login to Ubuntu I choose my account, type a password. I see a black screen and I see the log in page again without any error message or something. I googled it and it looks like "login loop error".
On the login screen, I switched to the console mode ([Alt] + [Ctrl] + [F3]
) and successfully logged in.
I executed ls -la
in my home directory and I see only few items:
Access-Your-Private-Data.desktop -> /usr/share/ecryptfs-utils/encryptfs-mount-provate.desktop
.encryptfs -> /home/.encryptfs/szymon/.encryptfs
.Private -> /home/.encryptfs/szymon/.Private
README.txt -> /usr/share/encryptfs-utils/mount-private.txt
I think the problem here is the lack of mounted encrypted /home
partition. Is that a correct statement?
How to fix that?
