Hmm.. Even boot-time controled whole disk encryption ?
May depend on where the key is:-) And, I'd need time for research.
Then again.. besides from the above example, it's pretty much true for
any system (not only linux)..
Windows is a little more difficult, I need a Linux boot disk and the
right program, and if it's a domain controller there's another trick
after that.
Which reminds me, I still have a fight to win against OS X.
