Fedora Test Day - Encrypted Block Device Installation
{{draft}}


= WHAT =
=== DVD ===


It's time to kick the tires on encrypted block device installation support in F10-Alpha. There have been several changes on this front recently, most notably the arrival of [http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/BetterStartup plymouth]. The plan is meet and try to poke holes in encrypted block device installations.  We'll have a host of QA and Development characters hanging out discussing bugs (aka "features"), expectations, and test areas.  I've included details below for how you can contribute below.

Have you tried installing using an encrypted block device yet?  Support for installing to encrypted block devices was added in Fedora 9 (see https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Anaconda/Features/EncryptedBlockDevices).  While this support has been present for an entire release, it hasn't yet been given a thorough test review.  Additionally, with the presence of [http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/BetterStartup plymouth], the method by which unlocking your encrypted devices has changed dramatically.
