This then needs the luks encrypted swap area recreating manually - and is a real pain. Hence I would suggest heeding this warning if your use encrypted swap! -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/encrypted-f10-install---changed-after-using-livecd---a-question--tp21390420p21397712.html Sent from the Fedora List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
