You can also use a image instead of a ``real'' filesystem, for example on FreeBSD:
First create a image, 100MB in this case: $ dd if=/dev/zero of=secret.img bs=1024K count=100 Next use mdconfig to create a /dev entry: # mdconfig -at vnode -f secret.img Next you can follow the normal stept for creating an encrypted filesystem (i.e. Killasmurf's FreeBSD + Geli), using md0. You can use # mdconfig -du0 to detach the device. This is much more flexible and faster, and you can set it up any time, no need to newfs stuff ... |
