Truecrypt on Linux doesn't seem to allow full disk encryption. I am
looking for suggestions here. I would really like to utilize a
package that asks for a password on bootup and handles everything else
(like Safeboot does full FDE). Alternatively, I could settle for
something that merely encrypts the partition. With TrueCrypt, which I
am currently utilizing, I can mount the encrypted file as a volume (or
a partition). This is OK for some things, but I was looking to hide
everything. I would like to be prompted for a password or key file on
boot ideally. I have done this on Windows, but never researched
anything outside of Truecrypt for Linux. Any ideas or first hand
suggestions? I don't think I should need to write this myself,
because it probably exists. Some of the docs I found online were a
bit outdated though. Thanks!
