I am planning on setting up encryption on top of RAID5; I'll have at least three encrypted partitions (/, /var/backups, swap). I tried this in an emulator, and had the same problem. > If you don't want to type so many passwords, why not just use 1 > partition? How many Linux systems use only one partition? I tried using a random key for the swap partition, but I guess mkswap wasn't being run on boot, so that didn't work. Couldn't there be some changes made to /etc/crypttab or whatever to get a key from USB drive? Or maybe to use one passphrase for multiple encrypted partitions. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
