-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, Apologies in advance if this isn't the right place to be asking this question: I've got a gbde partition based on an image file, private.img. I also have a lock file as per the instructions - /etc/gbde/md9 It's all working fine, but I want to be able to back it up somehow. If I back up private.img and /etc/gbde/md9, is that everything I need to do to be able to restore the encrypted partition? The lock file seems awfully small to be an encryption key (compared to the PGP keys I'm familiar with). What about the 'keys' mentioned in the handbook - I created 2 keys during the init, but I'm not sure where they are. Are they analagous to my PGP private keys, or what? Do I need to back them up somewhere? Do they have the same password? Any advice appreciated. Yours, Mark -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Note: This signature can be verified at https://www.hushtools.com/verify Version: Hush 2.4 wkYEARECAAYFAkKAlnYACgkQy7ADd7v2HyaSngCaAkYwBsqH3/3DBrrf/lXQjlaN2qsA oIkbjdtl2BBFhRY6CKs5uO9phVq2 =m5yy -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
