Is there anyone out there who has encrypted partitions/lvm volumes such as root, or swap,and is using software speech only? If so, can you please explain how you're doing that? The way I see it, without access to speakup early in the boot process, you can't respond to password dialogues, and leaving decryption keys lying around on something that isn't encrypted nullifies the whole point of encrypting at all. Any thoughts?
