FreeBSD 5.0-current has a new feature called GEOM

The man page is here :

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=geom&sektion=4&apropos=0&manpath=Fr
eeBSD+5.0-current


Although all the talk I've seen around it deals with real disks The

The expermental module that someone has tried is a disk encryption filter.
