### My encrypted drive doesn't appear in Debian qube.
This is an issue that affects qubes based on Debian Jessie. The problem is fixed in Stretch, and does not affect Fedora based qubes.
A mixed drive with some encrypted partitions appears correctly in nautilus. The encrypted partitions are identified and the user is prompted for password on attempting to mount the partition.
A fully encrypted drive does not appear in nautilus.
The work round is to manually decrypt and mount the drive:
1. attach usb device to qube - it should be attached as /dev/xvdi or similar.
2. sudo cryptsetup open /dev/xvdi bk --type luks
3. sudo cryptsetup status /dev/mapper/bk [Shows useful status]
4. sudo mount /dev/mapper/bk /mnt
The decrypted device is now available at /mnt - when you have finished using it unmount and close the drive.
1. sudo umount /mnt
2. sudo cryptsetup close bk --type luks
3. remove usb from qube
