==Installing with encrypted filesystem - SME10==
   −
In the installer for SME10, the option is given to modify the partitions created automagically.  If you go into the (manual) partition edit screen then there is a tick box for the mainroot partition "encrypt data". If you tick then "update" then "done", then after allowing the installation to proceed it will ask for a passphrase. This is put in twice to verify it. Do not forget or loose this phrase else you will not be able to boot into your server.

Once the installation is complete, then at the beginning of every boot the system will ask for the passphrase.  This means that you will always need a console on the server during the boot process.
