I know several of you out there are sitting ready to jump in and
protect your p0r^H^H^Hware^H^H^H^Hsource code with this as soon as
you see it, but please bear in mind that this is rather crude
implementation which mainly serves as "proof-of-concept" and that
the final article is likely to be entirely different from this.

But apart from that:

        mdconfig -a -t malloc -s 4m -u 98
        echo "<<FreeBSD-GEOM-AES>>" | dd conv=sync of=/dev/md98
        newfs /dev/md98.aes
        mount_ffs /dev/md98.aes /mnt

Have fun...

Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
