Wait... got an idea.
You can tell YaST to install, with full system encryption, on the first disk only. YaST will insist on doing this with LVM, even if there is only one partition inside - I think.
After this is done and working, you can add new partitions on the second disk, encrypted, with LVM or not, as you wish. Home could be there.
You would get password prompts for each space, unless plymouth handles this better.
Isn't the whole point of LVM that you can add space to it dynamically... surely, if you set up an LV on the whole SSD for root then subsequently add the HDD to it, it will be part of the same encrypted LV and you can add a /home partition and ones to move /var /swap etc to?
Might be I don't understand it well, but You create LV and then add another space. Will system (root) reside only on the SSD? I think LV will use given space for it, but regardless physical device underlaying it. Or not? I mean, I wish to keep root on SSD and /home on HDD and one LVM would break that. No?
In that case, you should create two volume groups, one for the HDD and another for the sdd, During boot time, you will be prompted for the luks phrase for the system area. For the home-area, you have multiple options: Either store the luks-phrase into a file (stored on an already protected system area). Or mount the user area only during logging in, and use the pam-mechanism to unlock your home-area..... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
