Description Flags
Patch against current rc.sysinit to support encrypted swap drives none

Description Peter Bieringer 2006-05-20 16:35:18 UTC
Description of problem:
FC5 currenty misses support for encrypted swap partitions

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
initscripts-8.31.1-1

Additional info:

Attached you will find a simple but very useful patch to enhance
/etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit to support encrypted swap partitions.

After applying the patch, following entry in /etc/fstab will result in setup of
encrypted swap:

LABEL=SWAPENC-sda2      swap-encrypted          swap   
dev=/dev/sda2,cipher=blowfish       0 0


BTW: rc.sysinit also misses support of encrypted partitions at all, I have also
a first patch for this, but this need some regressions before publishing.
