If you want to use LUKS as Frank suggested you have to initialize the device with the action luksFormat. So for you the steps would be: (ALL DATA on /dev/hda6 WILL BE LOST) 1) cryptsetup luksFormat /dev/hda6 (here you can also choose your favorite cipher (--cipher) 2) cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/hda6 mycryptfs 3) mkfs.ext3 /dev/mapper/mycryptfs 4) mount /dev/mapper/mycryptfs /mnt/foobar 5) touch /mnt/foobar/fb 6) umount /mnt/foobar 7) cryptsetup luksClose mycryptfs Test your /etc/crypttab with a reboot and see if the file 'fb' is on the filesystem. hope this helps Christoph btw: http://luks.endorphin.org/ http://feraga.com/node/51
