There are more "weak spots". Yyou even add one, but i guess adding two is "too much"? - Partition Table - Superblock(s) of the filesystem(s) - LVM - There are or at least i think there are a few "critical" blocks in each filesystem that i think will ruin your day if damaged. - ... Personally i unintentionaly did away with one (Partition Table) and don't use another (LVM), but that still leaves at least the superblock(s) of the filesystem. Btw. You can also use LUKS with a deattached header and/or backup the header, so it's not weaker than the other weak spots. -- Matthias _______________________________________________ dm-crypt mailing list dm-crypt@xxxxxxxx http://www.saout.de/mailman/listinfo/dm-crypt
