Slackware full disk encryption questions
by Linux.tar.gz from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5FADA)
Hi,
I'm fairly new to OS encryption. I'd like to achieve a full blown-up FDE.
Apart from some googling, I looked at:
https://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/slackware...ADME_CRYPT.TXT
https://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/slackware...EADME_UEFI.TXT
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php..._entire_system
Please correct me if I'm wrong, so far this is what I understood:
- I can't use an encrypted MBR and /boot because Slackware doesn't support Secure Boot
So this procedure is not possible:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php...ncrypted_/boot
- I can use either legacy BIOS or UEFI
