Subject: [dm-crypt] re-format existing luks partition
Date: Fri, 22 Nov 2013 19:26:21 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <528F152D.5090205@riseup.net> (raw)

ive recently discovered some faster cipher/hash combinations and want to
revive my old computer so-to-speak

can i re-format an existing luks partition (as the same /dev/sda[x] and
simply re-copy an fsarchive operating system backup straight to it
without anything further required ?

so i assume this is just a new crypto layer, and the operating system
will boot accordingly ?
