[FDE] On dual boot

[Garrett M. Groff]

Per the web site (http://www.mysecuredoc.com/plus_ed.asp), SecureDoc could 
be used to encrypt partitions on which (for eg) XP and Vista are installed, 
but your Suse Linux partition won't be encrypted. Is that accurate? If so, 
the problem with that is that the Linux data are not protected by SecureDoc. 
(Also, a potential problem is whether an additional license is required to 
encrypt both the XP and the Vista partition.)

So, in that scenario, isn't a hardware solution (like the Momentus FDE.2 
drive) the only feasible way to encrypt all data on the disk?

Hello, Rodrigo.

SecureDoc supports dual boot capabilities.  In fact, multiple boot.  You
could have your notebook set up with an XP, Vista, and Linux partitions if
you like.  Our product will work the same regardless.

Hi,


Does anyone knows how does FDE works on dual boot machines.
For example when you have a machine with Linux and Windows?
