partition encryption misisng for non LVM partitions?
Closed, WontfixPublic

Description

Just to have encryption, I'm asked to format and destroy my whole disk. That's not helpful. LVM allows encryption, but solus should also allow a way to allow non lvm partition to be used in encrypted way

example:

/boot - unencrypted
/ - encrypted

or

/boot - uncrypted
/ - uncrypted
/home - encrypted

Please consider allowing standard partition instead of only lvm based encrypted partitions.

thanks.

We have no plans on supporting non-FDE (full disk encryption) at this moment in time. LVM is necessary IIRC because of our use of dm-crypt and/or systemd-cryptsetup.
