<pre>Original cryptsetup has an --header option:
man cryptsetup:
"--header <device or file storing the LUKS header>
Use a detached (separated) metadata device or file where the LUKS header
is stored. This options allows to store ciphertext and LUKS header on different
devices."
But there are no such option in systemd-cryptsetup. I cannot use it in crypttab
too. What about of it's implementation?
It can be used for creation "hidden" volumes, which are not contains any
metadata about chipper end encryption type.
>From my point of view, it will be useful feature.</pre>
