I did find an article on encryption support in HAL which leads me to believe that pmount isn’t involved in the password collecting at all.

Yes, I tried using tune2fs to set the label, but it didn’t work. The LUKS device is mapped onto /dev/mapper/_dev_sdb1, then that device is mounted by pmount. Somewhere in that indirection my volume label got lost, forcing me to do the hal thing.

Maybe it needs a certain package I don’t have installed and falls back to the text mode prompt. Try doing a “pstree” to see children of pmount or so maybe? Thanks!

As for the volume label, did you try using tune2fs to label your volume directly?
