Encrypted disk
#5
Getting filesystem encryption up and running on Debian was more effort than I thought. It should be easier on Ubuntu as it comes with a dm-crypt module and an initrd.

My notes on how I encrypted the /home partition on Debian are available on my website (click on the website icon below). You definitely need to understand what you are doing.

By setting up filesystem encryption, you lose the ability to run MrFixIT's update script as this takes the liberty to overwrite files which I replaced a/o edited. You need to manually merge his updates from then on.
