When using Veracrypt on read-only media it fails.
Expected behavior
it mounts as read only
Observed behavior
device-mapper: reload ioctl on veracrypt1 failed: Read-only file system
Command failed
Steps to reproduce
- 1 make a veracrypt volume on a medium you can prevent writing from (I have a Veracrypt partition on an RDX drive with a write protect switch, an SD card, or a microSD in an SD Adapter should also work if the reader checks for the write protect switch)
- safely unmount, eject etc.
- turn on write protect
- insert into the system
- try mounting in veracrypt
