Disc encryption during installation
Hi, I was wondering whether there is any work being done in order to provide support for (full) disk encryption during installation. I know this can be done by installing a minimal system, manually setup encryption and install. But it would be nice to have something working out-of-the-box... P.S.: please keep me on CC, I'm not on the list.

See here for more information: > http://wiki.pcbsd.org/index.php/Disk_Encryption Thanks a lot for your reply. I am not quite familiar with PC-BSD and I was not aware it had this built-in. Unfortunately, I am not actually targetting x86 platforms, which means that PC-BSD is not an option.
