Possible to encrypt disk?

Hi,

If you use linux, I'd recommend using loop-AES, which adds encryption 
capabilities to the loop device (a.k.a: you can encrypt your home partition, 
for example)

I use it for my home partition on my laptop and works great. And is pretty 
fast: Using AES-256 (slowest) on my Pentium III laptop (850Mhz) I rarely note 
the diference. If you have a slower machine, probably AES 128 will be enough 

Hope this helps

Pedro

P.S: I dont have loop-AES patch URL here, but sure google has it :-)
