Yeah, that was my main concern with an approach like that. I imagine |
| 10 |
you could use a non-random key and enter it on each boot and restore |
| 11 |
from the encrypted swap, though I haven't actually used hibernation on |
| 12 |
linux so I'd have to look into how to make that work. I imagine with |

an initramfs it should be possible. |
