With LUKS installed on the complete partition of the drive /home as well as file system. Is it still possible to access Grub2 with the right shift during boot? I spent some time reading about Grub2 last night and how to password protect it but apparently it's bypassible even with admin user password enabled via being edited the Grub2 menu_line somehow. I tried to access the Grub boot menu with right shift and got no result. The system is currently running kernel version: 3.11.0-12-generic #19-Ubuntu grub-install -v unshare failed: Operation not permitted grub-install.real (GRUB) 2.00-19ubuntu2.1 Thanks > Date: Mon, 10 Mar 2014 22:46:06 -0500 > From: marc at e-skinner.net > To: tclug-list at mn-linux.org > Subject: Re: [tclug-list] easy to mount existing harddisks > > I"m a big fan of LUKS: > > https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Security_Guide/sect-Security_Guide-LUKS_Disk_Encryption.html > > I use it on my /home LVM partition, and every time I boot my machine it > prompts me in a nice graphical format for my LUKS pass phrase. > > > > > On 03/08/2014 09:08 AM, Jeremy MountainJohnson wrote: > > Truecrypt is probably easier than gpg IMO considering it's user > > friendly gui in Linux.
