I don't know I should ask my question here or not,I want to lock my partitons by geli or gbde, but I want that after boot users don't force to enter the passphrase. In other wise the partitions are locked but seems that they aren't lock. I need it for security that if any one try to mount partitions by CD or flash can't do it.

As long as the thumb drive is available and mounted then the keys will be available for the encrypted partition to use. The user could also keep a key in their home directory that would allow them to mount the partition as well but only after the machine has been booted and unencrypted by use of the USB thumb drive. Just one way to look at it. Hope it helps. -- - (2^(N-1))
