Hi, is there any possibility in cryptsetup-1.1.3 to maintain / restore the uuid of an encrypted root partition on a Fedora 13 system? What I've planned to do is to switch the standard encryption the Fedora installer has put on a laptops root partition from aes-xts-plain to twofish-xts-plain, because twofish is about 25% faster on this machine. So I'll boot from CD, take a copy of the root fs, reformat it with the new specs, and restore from backup. However, the uuid of the partition gets changed by this process, and I'm curious if writing the new uuid into fstab/crypttab/grub.conf is enough to boot the system properly. I tried to chroot into the Fedora root directory from the boot CD and rebuild the initramfs via dracut, but the root partition could not be found any more. I guess the uuid of the encrypted root partition is included in the initramfs, which means that I have to build an initramfs from the active system, which isn't possible. So is there a possibility (maybe in cryptsetup) that allows to customize the uuid? It's possible with xfs_admin to do that, but only the uuid of the mapped partition, the uuid of the device itself doesn't get changed, of course. What am I missing? Thanks, Heinz. _______________________________________________ dm-crypt mailing list dm-crypt@xxxxxxxx http://www.saout.de/mailman/listinfo/dm-crypt
