Hi,
As we have a rather recent Linux kernel (2.6.6), encrypted virtual discs should be possible provided that the kernel has been built for it. The method I was opting for was to create a filesystem on a file and mount it using an encrypted loopdevice, i.e. :
# dd if=/dev/urandom of=/mnt/HD_a2/disk-aes count=102400 # losetup -e aes /dev/loop1 /mnt/HD_a2/disk-aes Password: XXXXX # mkfs /dev/loop1 # mkdir /mnt/HD_a2/enc_fs # mount -o loop,encryption=aes /mnt/HD_a2/disk-aes/enc_fs Password: XXXXX
But, for this to work I need to know if the following is present in the kernel, and if not - if it can be added using 'insmod':
* loop (Is present AFAIKN)
* cryptoloop
* aes
And; is losetup availabe on the unit already?
Anyone?

well, I don't think the cryptoloop device can be used without a custom kernel (since the loopback device is integrated into the kernel)... when trying to load the compiled cryptoloop module it's missing the symbols 'crypto_alloc_tfm' and 'crypto_free_tfm' :-(
