Ms Dean and/or anyone wishing to answer, how does one integrate FreeOTFE with dm-crypt/LUKS? I can find no instructions/answers on how to integrate FreeOTFE with dm-crypt/LUKS in the Windows XP (and maybe also Vista, 2003 & Windows 7) environment on any of the relevant source web sites or wiki/Wikipedia sites. Or is dm-crypt/LUKS already integrated into FreeOFTE? I am not a Linux-based OS user, but I may try adding SuSE or Ubuntu for a multi-boot/OS to my current system (additional unrelated question, which is of these Linux variants is probably best for a person such as I?) Thank you very such for any plain, basic instructions/answers.
