Mr. Ruusu: Correct me if I am wrong, but if loop-aes were integrated into EVMS, would that not make creating an encrypted swap quite easy?

No need to shoehorn them into EVMS. Regards, Jari Ruusu <jari.ruusu@pp.inet.fi> - Linux-crypto: cryptography in and on the Linux system Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/linux-crypto/
