I have a running Fedora 21 system. I would like to make a backup of it to a USB drive, a clone that can be booted. I know how to do all the "normal" stuff (partition, LVM, mkfs, rsync, and GRUB), but I'd like the USB drive to be encrypted, and I don't know how to set that up manually (I haven't messed with encrypted filesystems under Linux before). The system I'm backing is also headless, so no GUI tools. Pointers, tips, suggestions? Thanks.
cryptsetup is the program used to create LUKS devices. I run LUKS on top of separate raid arrays, but you might also want to have just one LUKS device and run LVM on top of that.
