Installing Fedora with LVM and LUKS, using the encryption layer on top of the LVM layer.
I am trying to install Fedora 15 32bit on a laptop with 750Gb Advanced Format WD drive.
the partition scheme I have in my mind is like this: sda1 100GB* Win7 sda2 500MB /boot sda3 500GB* LVM (also the PV and the VG) -LV 15GB /root (encrypted) -LV* 50GB /home (encrypted) -LV* 4GB swap partition (encrypted) - leave the rest unassigned for the time being sda4 150GB* NTFS ( whatever is left) I successfully setup a test system with the LUKS layer under the LVM, that is encrypting the whole PV rather than encrypting individual LVs. It boots fine without any issues and I only have to enter the pass phrase once. Now I would like to change this setup with the LVM layer below the LUKS layer. That way I do not have to worry about decrypting 500Gb at every boot. *I would like to know if there is a way to decrypt all the encrypted LVs with one pass phrase. -- Kind regards, Yudi -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines |
