Now my problem is: if I do not pay attention to the prompt and type nothing (it just proceeds after a certain amount of time) I can log in fine but my files are going somewhere non encrypted. I am having a problem understanding why there always appear to be a /home directory even though I have specified the enc partition to be mounted that way....what is going on??
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 regards, -- Marek Chlopek
