Encrypt The System Manually Upon Installation (Ubuntu 8.04)

"...please consider carefully how you want to size your partitions. I did this on a 15 GB virtual image, hence swap, root, home are quite small. As I've just told, I will make a seperate home partition. If you need to reinstall, you can just follow this guide again BUT leave the /home partition untouched during installation.

Older, wiser, leader

Graeme Smith embarks upon his second series in England as a more rounded character blessed with a more established game. Not that he did so badly last time. To the contrary his visit five years ago surpassed all expectations. Smith managed to turn a suspicious and fraught team containing a variety of sceptical elders and footloose youngsters into a single-minded outfit capable of concentrating on present matters as opposed to distant disturbance.

South African captains seldom waste much time worrying about their enemies; it's the friends who cause the problems.

Illegal File-Sharing Pact On Verge Of Collapse

Earlier this month we reported upon the landmark agreement between the music industry and a whole host of ISP which would see those engaging in illegal file-sharing punished in some way by their ISP. Initially it looked as though ISPs would take a ‘three strikes and you are out' approach which would see those engaging in illegal file-sharing warned and then cut off if they continued to re-offend.
