Hello, thanks for your response, Neil!
As for dmcrypt usage, what do you think about truecrypt or pgp whole disk
encryption as alternatives to dmcrypt?
I would like to have only one partition with all home directories on it,
and I would like to avoid usage of initrd as I don't use it now and I would
like to keep it that way if possible.
