Yes, you cannot use this for hibernation. But default encrypted Fedora installation uses LUKS, which is suitable for hibernation. (In fact it encrypts LVM PV, where both root and swap resides.) > * Using the same key for swap & root is not recommended because some > tool caches the password, making the whole thing meaningless [1] Completely different problem. Fedora init ramdisk will ask for password, then resumes from hibernation. No passphrase is stored on disk... Take F16 install DVD, check "encrypt system" in the first screen for new installation. That's all you need to make it work. Milan _______________________________________________ dm-crypt mailing list dm-crypt@xxxxxxxx http://www.saout.de/mailman/listinfo/dm-crypt
