[gentoo-user] dmcrypt for a /home directory that already has many files on it

[Rob]

I was planning to use dmcrypt on my /home partition and I read the
proceedure on the Gentoo Wiki.  I think though, that the proceedures
given there are for new partitions without a filesystem.  Maybe I am
wrong.

Anyway, I wondered if there would be any problem with temporarily moving
my /home data to some new directory on /usr, then using the dmcrypt on
the /home directory, and finally copying all of the old /home data back
onto the new encrypted partition?
