Hey guys,
I'm hoping that you guys can point me in the right direction. I have become very interested in the idea of an encrypted file system, rather than
encrypting
individual files. I read an article in the Linux Journal that talked about how to give Linux the support. Well, first I had to get the source for an older kernel, 2.0.30, and use the patches. It patched and compiled fine. Next I was supposed to patch mount. The problem I am facing is that the mount source will not take the patch right.
If anyone can help me on these two issues I would be very happy:
1) What source version of mount do I need to use?
2) Is there a way to get kernel 2.0.35 or later to use this support?
There is a set of Kernel patches at ftp://ftp.kerneli.org/pub/linux/kerneli/v2.1/ . Look for the patch-int files. Note: I have not been able to get these to compile cleanly. It may take some work to get them to work right. (I know of at least one typo in devices/block/loop_gen.c that prevents it from compiling on the patch for 2.1.131.) --- | Bill Clinton - Bringing back the Sixties one Nixon at a time! | |"The moral PGP Diffie taught Zimmermann unites all| Disclaimer: | | mankind free in one-key-steganography-privacy!" | Ignore the man | | | behind the keyboard.| | http://www.ctrl-alt-del.com/~alan/ |alan@ctrl-alt-del.com|
