Initramfs for encrypted root using GPG encrypted random keys
Cha! The most tricky part is comming. I spent 2 days to make this work. There are several tutorials on the internet but you will still need a lot of thinking and patience.
Creating GPG encrypted random keys
In this post I described how to encrypt a root parition. The paritions are encrypted using LUKS passphrase. A passprase is usually much easier to guess or find out than a randomly generated key. And we can take the keys…
Encrypting root
I am using disk encryption for a while now. But never really managed to encrypt my root filesystem. Finally got so far! Decision made! Now the hard part: Make it work…
Cipher Benchmark & Choosing Algorithm and Encryption Mode
I was always searching for a benchmark of encryption algorithms every time I was going to encrypt a hard drive. Every time!
