The last few times I've fired up Tails it no longer automounts the persistent volume. It accepts the pass phrase and does not output any error but the volume is just not getting mounted. If I plug the USB key into a different Linux machine I can see all the data is still there. Is there any fix other than a reinstall?
Edit: actually, it is being mounted, but the link to ~/Persistent is not getting created. I can do ln -s /live/persistence/TailsData_unlocked/Persistent and it appears in the home directory just like it used to. But, still super annoying because my saved wireless network passwords etc are no longer used.
Try: Applications ==> Tails ==> configure persistant volume and (re)select your persistent options again. Relaunch Tails and update us :P
