Is it necessary from a reliability and/or security standpoint to detach GELI volumes before rebooting? Specifically, if I unmount the filesystem, but do not detach (and disable auto-detach) - do I risk data corruption or leakage of private keys during a normal reboot process? Are there any risks at all to rebooting without detach? I have been searching the list archives and can't seem to find a statement either way. Thank you, Isaac Huff
