Entropy Volume
The Dankserver entropy volume is a RAID-backed LUKS filesystem mounted at
/mnt/entropy. The command-line helper reuses the host's desktop-integrated
udisks2, crypttab, and fstab configuration; it does not store or handle
the passphrase itself.
Command-line mount
/home/dank/serverAppConfigs/scripts/mount-entropy.sh
Run it as the normal desktop user (dank), not from a root shell. udisksctl
will securely prompt for the LUKS passphrase. sudo mount /mnt/entropy then
uses the existing /etc/fstab entry, preserving its options:
nosuid,nodev
The existing mountpoint is owned by dank:dankserver with mode 0755; the
helper deliberately does not run chmod or chown, so it cannot silently
change those permissions.
Device path
The current storage chain is:
/dev/md0 -> LUKS UUID cd86c728-459e-4f3a-bcc2-41ecf84685ec
-> ext4 label entropy
-> /mnt/entropy
The helper checks that /dev/md0 exists and exits successfully if the volume
is already mounted. It is intentionally specific to this host and volume:
that avoids accidentally unlocking or mounting a different disk.
