Hi,

I plan to encrypt the whole hard drive with geli. That is reaaly well=20
documented and every thing went ok. But there is one thing that does not=20
work. How do I make a bootable USB stick? I need it because the root=20
partition of the hard drive is encrypted too. I tried to make a bootable US=
B=20
stick with sysinstall and also with fdisk. I tried to do it on my new Athlo=
n=20
64 board and on and old Pentium III board. The result is always the same:=20
When I try to boot from the stick the Athlon 64 always says "invalid slice"=
=2E=20
And the P III always tells my "invalid label". That look like some kind of=
=20
geometry problem. Can anybody help my please? I'm using FreeBSD 6.1-RC.
