Someone recently posted some benchmarks showing how awful an atom's performance can be with encryption, so this makes good sense with a netbook. Of course, running an encrypted root means you need an init thingy[tm] anyway, so there is no problem with mounting /usr from there too. --=20 Neil Bothwick There's no place like ~ --Sig_/0.F_71yNgE4_0YqzAjGkP51 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=signature.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAlDZjwgACgkQum4al0N1GQO2XQCePwgRPWLecbznq5uUM7faUMMP h+gAn1qjIprO1grP3iDLTByG6qe51Kpf =kDAW -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/0.F_71yNgE4_0YqzAjGkP51--
