Re: Clone a system to an encrypted drive

Look Arch Linux's wiki for LUKS / dm-crypt, you will probably need to read some documentation but in an hour or less you should be able to create an encrypted partition, an encrypted swap, learn how to unlock it manually or via cryptab/cryptsecrets and so on.

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.
