Never run encryption on swap. Doing so merely burdens performance. I doubt even NSA, CIA, MI6 encrypt swap partitions on workstations. I've never tried to boot from an encrypted /boot, so I really can't say if it would work or not. Why can't/won't you create 3 partitions? [boot] 100MB mounted as /boot normal ext2 [swap] 1-8GB mounted as normal swap partition [root] [remaining space] mounted as /root and encrypted however you like -- Stan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
