Hi.
I'm installing Slackware 12.1 and I'm encrypting the entire file
system (except /boot).
I'm following the instructions, but when I'm editing lilo.conf and
changing the linux bootable config and then try to run lilo I get
(besides those warnings):

Fatal: Illegal 'root' specification: /dev/mapper/cryptroot

I'm pretty sure I did everything correctly. Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Sorry, my bad.
I did the procedure all over again, and this time it worked.

Thanks for the walkthrough :)
