Thank you guys for your help! I take into account what you suggested. As I wouldn't need 30 cm steel door if I lived in an uninhabited island. And probably the weakest encryption would be a challenge for a 'petty thief', like: cryptsetup -v --cipher blowfish-cbc-plain --key-size 128 --hash sha1 --iter-time 500 --use-random luksFormat <device> -- You are so lucky! _______________________________________________ dm-crypt mailing list dm-crypt@xxxxxxxx http://www.saout.de/mailman/listinfo/dm-crypt
