Hi everyone, |

A few days ago I saw some discussion on this list about setting up an |
| 4 |
encrypted root filesystem in gentoo using LUKS. I've been setting up |
| 5 |
systems with encrypted root for over a year now (x86 and amd68 systems), |
| 6 |
but I've been writing my own linuxrc, statically compiling all the |
| 7 |
necessary utilities, contructing initrd.gz and configuring the kernel |
| 8 |
manually. Its a lot of work, but doing things manually gives me more |
| 9 |
confidence in what's going on. I've written a howto. Here's the link: |

People on this list might be interested. I'd appreciate any critiques. |
