Persistent mount of BitLocker drives

Hi, is there a way to make sure external BitLocker harddisks persistently mount at the same point? I've found these drives can't be mounted by label and using partuuid didn't work for me yet too. Now I'm frequently switching sdc2 to sdd2 ... I use dislocker to mount the disks. Thx, Zach

Re: Persistent mount of BitLocker drives

untested and maybe instable, but Cryptsetup  since 2.3.0 can open Bitlocker:

If this works for you, you can go the usual way with crypttab + fstab.

And regarding your block device naming issue, have a look at

to find some persistent name for your block device.
