Hi, you can check this out: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Encrypted-Root-Filesystem-HOWTO/ Also, when installing a fresh Lenny, the installer program let's you encrypt the root partition. This is a very easy and simple way to do it. Just needs an unencrypted /boot but there's hardly any sensitive or secret information there. -- Juha Tuuna -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
