I
Agrree.. but in this case there's another porpouse...
How it works? Well.. there are something about a hundred machines using this encrypted-root filesystem, these systems are for public use. It would be a very hard work for me, going to put the passphase in each computer. In this case, i changed my strategy.. i'm using the encrypted-root just to avoid anyboby mounting the ide-flash as a slave device, but if anybody put it as a primary-master? what happen?! There's a script that check if that machine it's one of ours, if not, the ide-flash is formated.. (this last step is made by hardware).

Any
