Hey everyone,
I am trying to automatically mount a data partition which I encrypted using veracrypt. Therefore I oriented myself on the Wiki Article concerning Truecrypt, created a file in /etc with the password called volume.password and put the following line in my /etc/crypttab:
data /dev/sda7 /etc/volume.password tcrypt, noauto
Arch then presents me a password prompt on startup. Can you help me to figure out the correct statement for crypttab?
Thank you!
Simon
EDIT:
If it helps, manually mounting with the command
cryptsetup --veracrypt open --type tcrypt /dev/sda7 veracrypt-volume
works fine

I still couldn't figure it out, anyone there who can help?

I had the same problem! Turns out systemd was lacking such an option, so I have implemented it myself. Unless I'm mistaken, it will be included in systemd 232.
The new option is tcrypt-veracrypt. For example:
data /dev/sda7 /etc/volume.password tcrypt,noauto,tcrypt-veracrypt
See the pull request I made for more info.
