cryptsetup is a command for manage encrypted partitions:
http://man.aiju.de/8/cryptsetup

I have repeated the installation, hoping I made a mistake adding my user to cwfs
or something.  I configured the system again, recovered my data from other computer
again, and when I was so happy starting to work in acme organizing my dirs the whole
window is filled with those errors of Tfile... expected Tdir...

Before installing Plan9 I tested the disk with linux's badblocks (write-mode test), although
I think in case of bad sectors the output would be something about I-O errors.

I don't know what to do.  I want a stable environment to work (I'm very happy with the idea of
plan9 with worm, dump and mirror) and I am used to encrypt my partitions in openbsd and linux.
I don't like the idea of have my data exposed.

Regards,
trebol.

Hello everyone,

I have problems in a new installed system with cryptsetup and cwfs64.

checktag pc=8694 cw "/dev/fs/fscache"w'/dev/fs/fsworm" (17cc8) tag /path=Tfile/49361; expected Tdir/49358

This is a fresh installation (not strange move-copy-dump-whatever) so this tags inconsistencies are worrying me,
because that can happen in the future again with important data.

Anyone has have similar problems with cryptsetup and cwfs64?
Can I trust cryptsetup?
Is fossil more stable than cwfs64?  I have read a lot in 9fans archive but I can't make any conclusion...

Also, I don't find anything about cryptsetup outside 9front.  Is it possible to use it in the original Plan9?

Thanks in advance,
trebol.
