Grub is not involved. What your boot script does, I have no idea. You may want to look at /etc/crypttab, that could give you the option to mount all three with the same passphrase. I have only used it to set up encrypted sawp, no idea what it can do in addition (man crypttab for a description). Arno -- Arno Wagner, Dr. sc. techn., Dipl.
