Re: LUKS GPT GUID

I don't think one is needed. I just use whatever is in the
LUKS container. Most are on RAID though, and there I just 
use 0xfd for autodetection to get a clean, transparent 
assembly process that doe snot rely on anything in user-space. 
(The current Linux software RAID folks are unfortunately pretty 
incompetent and completely missed the point of autodetection. 
Fortunately the old, well implemented, mechanisms continue to 
work.)
