I have setup an encrypted /home with dm-crypt. Now I try to reinstall
Debian. The installer sees a partition with a ext3 file system. How do
I proceed (without destroying my data on /home)? Should I configure
the partition as encrypted with 'erase' unchecked? And if so how do I
know if the default settings (aes etc) are correct/ Thanks in advance!

i would leave the encrypted partition untouched during installation andadd it after the installation.
