Package: partman-auto-crypto
Version: 7
Severity: wishlist
This wishlist is extracted for T. Nan's request [1] posted on the
debian-boot mailling-list.
partman-auto-crypto should define a debconf question (for preseeding
only) that would make it define the skip_erase flag for the encrypted
partition. This would allow one to bypass the lengthly erasing step
when doing automated installations.
As using this option would hamper the security of the encrypted
partition, enough warning should be present in the documentation.
Having the ability to skip erasure would at least benefit automated
testing of encrypted installations, and sounds worthwhile to have.
