I create a dummy partition with type 'da' (Non-FS-Data) on my HDDs. Altough 0 (Empty) sounds nice too. ;-) I say dummy partition because i don't actually use the partition for anything. It's only there to stop my encryption init-script, so that i don't accidentally kill an already initialized HDD (or one of the system-HDDs) in case i fat-fingered the device-name. -- Matthias _______________________________________________ dm-crypt mailing list dm-crypt@xxxxxxxx http://www.saout.de/mailman/listinfo/dm-crypt
