Dear All, Yesterday I played a little with encrypted file-systems under my SUSE 9.1; wanted to see how easy is that stuff for a "user"... Under a recently installed and completelly updated computer with Yast I made a ~20Gb partition with reiserfs; made the partition user-mountable, and set it also to noauto. I defined a rel. long password, and then exited Yast. I went to a terminal, and mounted the freshly made partition as 'mount /dev/hda8' and it worked without any problem. But after restart I could just get with the above command an error message even with the correct password, that the Kernel doesn't support the "encryption method". I attempted the same with another filesystems, also with ext3 and XFS with the same result; after reboot I wasn't able to mount that partition anymore. Did I miss something, or doing something wrong? During the grub loads now, I don't get the previously coming nice menu, exactly as it was written e.g. in the admin-manual. But what's the situation, if I don't plan to have excrypted stuff anymore, and would like to get back my nicely looking grub-menu?! Is there a way to avoid the boot process loading the encryption-related bonuses or restore the menu on another way? Thanks a lot, Peli
