This kind of setup however doesn't allow for easy migration from non-encrypted systems, and lacks some flexibility. Has embedding some encryption system into LVM itself ever been considered, and if it has, why has it been dismissed? If not, would it be something the LVM developers would be interested in pursuing? Cheers, Mike
