Well, mein encrypted partition at an external USB drive is mounted udner KDE in this way : | Code: | /dev/mapper/udisks-luks-uuid-7f2f5b8b-fdd2-451f-bb94-faf3fd5aa663-uid1000
150229 105809 44420 71% /media/e3743250-6d49-4231-a758-20be59db98c4
|
Now I'm wondering, where I can define for this drive a short-hand name ?

Hi,
this happens due the lack of label on your luks-encrypted volume.
Assuming your external luks device is /dev/sdc1, you are using ext2/ext3/ext3
and your preffered short-hand name is storage, do the following to relabel your volume:
| Code: | cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sdc1 tmpmap
e2label /dev/mapper/tmpmap storage
cryptsetup luksClose /dev/mapper/tmpmap
|
Now try again to mount your external drive via kde/udisks, the new mountpoint should be: /media/storage
