Yup, establishing encrypted partition for /home was easy as a pie using
cryptsetup. I was considering using truecrypt as it offers multiplatform
support, so I could access encrypted partition even from my dualbooted
windoze, but I didn't want to put effort into something not as well
documented (how-toed) as dmcrypt.
As for initrd, I believe it has a lot of advantages, but as long as I can
avoid it, I don't see any reason why to spend time learning that stuff and
making my kernel deployment more complicated. I know that one day I will
have to learn that stuff. But as far as it is not today, it makes my day
even better :)

Thanks for all your responses!

Peter
