I have a USB drive partitioned in two slices, first one formatted VFAT the other setup using LUKS and formatted ext2.

It can use any crypto scheme compiled into the kernel, I use aes-cbc-essiv:sha256. --Tim -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
