Hello out there, one question: I have a installation on my thinkpad with an encrypted lvm. I got this by the "guided partition" of the debian installer. I want to recreate this on a SSD with the difference: I do not want format the whole disk because of trimming on a SSD. I want 20% of that SSD unformatted! And I want to use btrfs instead of ext3. So I tried to analyse how the debian installer processed my disk and when I call cfdisk I saw this part-table:
Name Flags Part Type FS Type [Label] Size (MB) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Primary Free Space 1,05* sda1 Boot Primary ext2 254,81* Pri/Log Free Space 1,05* sda5 NC Logical crypto_LUKS 99773,06* Pri/Log Free Space 0,29* So can anybody tell me for what these gaps between the partitions are good for? And is grub2 not able to load a kernel from a encrypted disk, so that I still need a uncrypted boot partition?
