mounting veracrypt partition on boot
I want to mount automatically, at startup, a veracrypt partition. But the problem is that I can't mount it by the command line, 'cause, when I type this command:
# veracrypt -t --non-interactive -p some-password /dev/sdaX /media/veracrypt1/
I get the fallowing output:
Operation failed due to one or more of the following:
- Incorrect password.
- Incorrect Volume PIM number.
- Incorrect PRF (hash).
- Not a valid volume.
Enter password for /dev/sdaX:
and I have to put the password again, but this time, it mounts the partition.
So I need to mount it from the command line so I can set a script to mount it automatically at startup.

In such cases usually the problem is caused by the special characters used within the password. So probably you need to quote the password:
... -p 'some-password' ...
or
... -p'some-password' ...
