yeehi1Using text install in Precise: I have successfully created a single encrypted volume, on which I can now put a file system. But I wanted to shrink this, so that some can be swap and the rest the file system. How do I do this?08:04
yeehi1If I create 2 encrypted volumes, one for swap and one for the fs, I would have to enter a password twice at bootup.08:04
yeehi1in Quantum/Raring, we only need to enter a password once, if we use the automated method.08:05
