.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
.I Cryptsetup
|
||
|
prepares a AES-encrypted partition to be used with the
|
||
|
.IR fs (3)
|
||
|
device.
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
The
|
||
|
.B -f
|
||
|
flag formats the partitions
|
||
|
.I files,
|
||
|
generating a new encryption key. The encryption key is
|
||
|
protected by a password that
|
||
|
.I cryptsetup
|
||
|
will prompt for confirmation.
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
The flags
|
||
|
.B -i
|
||
|
and
|
||
|
.B -o
|
||
|
activate a previously formated encrypted partition. The
|
||
|
.B -o
|
||
|
flag outputs the
|
||
|
.IR fs (3)
|
||
|
ctl activation commands to standard output where
|
||
|
.B -i
|
||
|
directly writes them to the
|
||
|
.B '/dev/fs/ctl'
|
||
|
file.
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
Once activated, the new partition appears under
|
||
|
.BI /dev/fs/ name
|
||
|
where
|
||
|
.I name
|
||
|
is the last path element of the
|
||
|
.I files
|
||
|
argument.
