Define 'Linux'. I'm running Gentoo and would strongly assert that the task is on the far 'minor pain' end of the spectrum. I did it using losetup, basic steps: 1. dump/restore everything to another HDD. 2. chroot/boot new HDD. 3. dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/hda bs=8192 4. wait 5. losetup -e aes256 /dev/loop0 /dev/hda 6. mke2fs /dev/loop0 7. mount /dev/loop0 /mnt/tmp 8. restore onto /mnt/tmp Niggly details in papers here http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Encrypted-Root-Filesystem-HO WTO/ and here http://www.remote-exploit.org/index.php/Encrypted_ EFS. Granted, you speak of customers, but for those with middling to good Linux skills this shouldn't be too hard.
