Well - if unencrypted then in principle in the even of theft the swap partition would have information in clear which could be read. If the root partition contains the luks keyfile and you need a luks passphrase to open the / partition then in principle there is no unencrypted information on any of the partitions that could easily be accessed since the / partition needs to be opened with a luks passphrase before the keyfile to open the swap partition could be accessed. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
