As john-larfour2 previously mentioned in issue #839 , when attempting to disable kernel crypto services, I am able to successfully mount the volume, but I encounter the error message ls: cannot access 'mount/folder': Structure needs cleaning on all folders/files except for lost+found . Is there a solution to this issue?
