Failed in required package installations, especially wxWidgets.

 

Thank you in advanced for any kind hand!

Why are you using an unmaintained crypto library? Talk about a bad idea, even its own authors have stated people should not use truecrypt!

 

Have you considered just using cryptsetup, its battle tested, well maintained, and has a secure chain of trust & update path through your distro of choice, unlike truecrypt.

Terrific! cryptsetup can access truecrypted file or device!

 

My solution:

 

$ sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/HDD333

$ sudo cryptsetup --type tcrypt open /media/HDD333/encHDD333.tc truecrypt1

$ sudo mkdir /media/truecrypt1

$ sudo mount -o uid=1000 /dev/mapper/truecrypt1 /media/truecrypt1

$ cd /media/truecrypt1/

 

DONE!
