You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I have an encrypted partition on my hard disc (/dev/sda6, which is not
the home-dir partition, but simply an additional private region of my
HD). When I log in, gnome-hal (?) asks me for the password, then hangs
if the passwd is correct. To correct this I added /dev/sda6 in
/etc/pmount.allow, but now the mounted partition appears as
/media/usbdisk, which is incoherent (It should be named sda6 at least)

If I press on cancel in the passwd box, everything goes on well, and I
can mount my partition with pmount from a term, passing a correct label
as argument.

Once mounted, this partition cannot be umounted using the disk applet,
which complains that 'you are not root'. It can be umounted with pumount
without any problem (and without sudo)
