This is supposed to work. I haven't been testing encrypted installs though.

The boot process saves the passwords you use (hopefully in a relatively secure manner) and only asks you for a new one if none of the previously supplied ones could unlock an encrypted device. > Also the swap partition is encrypted - presumably the same encryption is possible > with the pre-existing swap partition during install? Yes. It uses a fixed key. (You need that for suspend/resume to have a chance of working.) In the past some people had the encrypted device swap was on, get a random key at each boot. That mode isn't supported. -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
