well, your system do have your /home directory wherever you have mounted or not your partition. in case you do not mount it, system writes data just on the root partition where the /home directory is located. in case you mount a partition, data are stored on this partition. please read about partitions and mounting in linux for more.
you can also mount an encrypted partition later after booting byy (as root): /etc/rc.d/boot.crypto restart
There is another method that defines them directly in /etc/fstab. For instance: /biggy/crypta.bck.file /biggy/crypta.bck ext3 noauto,acl,user_xattr,loop=/dev/loop1,encryption=twofish256,phash=sha512,itercountk=100 0 0 To avoid login in without the encrypted home being mounted, I would perhaps modify the rcxdm script so that it checks the status of the partition, for example, by finding some encrypted file before proceeding. - -- Saludos Carlos Robinson -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.76 iD8DBQFE/M6QtTMYHG2NR9URAgctAJ4s+VUjRQet6MjGVPuD25rWNb/RjQCfXSM1 OLV7d+C94opcDk8wJ252Nzo= =oWwn -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
