Thread: How to upgrade when HD is encrypted
i have 9.04 system encrypted installation using standard ubuntu fs encryption.
question consequences there upgrading 9.10 , beyond?
happen seemlessly or potential security leaks , or data loss?
you upgrade encrypted system same way unencrypted system. no more or less problematic unencrypted partition.
differences can think of be:
1. encryption makes data recovery difficult impossible, before upgrade, should doing already, not different.
2. there handful of packages unique luks / ecryptfs or whatever using encryption. have not had bugs of these packages in terms of upgrades, ymmv.
