Cryptome.org: Encrypting your Disks with Linux

Getting a Notebook Computer seemed to be a good reason to
me to start encrypting my disks. I new there was disk encryption
code for Linux out there so I just had to patch it into the
kernel.

“Surfing the web for this Linux disk encryption code I found out
there is – unknown to the wide public – a LOT of code for this
purpose out there.”

“So I decided to write a small overview of the different
aproaches for disk encryption. For myself I decided to use ppdd but
I like ehd with kernel loopback encryption too, because it makes
using disk encription on a system used by multiple persons very
easy. Perhaps I should fiddle with ehd to work with ppdd.”
