-Encrypted root fs
------------------
-
-  This package integrates with initramfs-tools so that an initramfs
-  created with initramfs-tools will be able to handle a root fs on an
-  encrypted (or not) loop device.
-
-  This support is automatically enabled at initramfs creation time
-  when your root device in /etc/fstab has a "loop=/dev/loopN"
-  option. You can also force it on by setting the environmental
-  variable INITRAMFS_LOOPAES to "1", "yes" or "on"; you can force it
-  off by setting INITRAMFS_LOOPAES to "0", "no" or
-  "off". INITRAMFS_LOOPAES can be set in the shell calling mkinitramfs
-  or in /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf .
-
-  When support is forced on, support for all ciphers is included; when
-  automatically enabled, only the necessary cipher module is included
-  in the initramfs.
-
-  The entry for the root fs in /etc/fstab should look like:
-  /dev/hda5	/	ext3	loop=/dev/loop5,encryption=AES,gpgkey=/root/keys/loopaes.gpg	0	0
-  not
-  /dev/loop5	/	ext3	defaults	0	0
-
-  If the options include a "gpghome=" and/or a "gpgkey=", these will
-  be copied into the initramfs, to /keys/rootkeyfile.gpg and /.gnupg,
-  respectively; if you supply a "gpghome=" option, it is recommended
-  that it point towards a specially prepared minimal directory rather
-  than your usual "~/.gnupg/".
-
-  You can override the loop and crypto related options of /etc/fstab
-  at boot time by setting the kernel command-line "loopaesopts="
-  option from your boot leader. The syntax is the same as in the
-  options column of /etc/fstab. Any file path will be interpreted in
-  the initramfs, obviously. For example:
-  "loopaesopts=loop=/dev/loop5,encryption=AES,gpgkey=/keys/rootkeyfile.gpg"
