I do find that, after using EasyCrypt to mount the volume on /media/mmc1/secure, I then have to mount the partition separately using: mount /dev/mmcblk1p2 /media/mmc1/secure. This is because, when I try to mount a volume in EasyCrypt, choosing the device doesn't work for me - I can only do it by opening the crypt.tc file. It doesn't sound quite like your notes suggest, but it's working.
The other problem I still have is that, if I try connecting the N810 to an XP box via USB and then try to mount the drive using TrueCrypt, it gives me a blue screen of death on XP. The only way round this is to mount the volume on the N810 and then use WinSCP to get the data.
