Hi hi!
I'm working on a project at the moment, namely an install of Freebsd on an 8gb USB stick, however I want most (if not all) of the data to be encrypted. Originally I was going to encrypt the whole thing but I don't want to have to supply a boot cd or another usb stick to access it, which seems redundant!
If I were to encrypt most, but not all, of the partitions (say, /usr, /etc, /var, /home and /bin, but not /boot) would I be able to boot from the stick and enter the passkey without having to use another bootable medium?
