Hello
I have been experimenting with backing up & restoring my C drive:
Disk 0 before restoration:
System Reserved 350MB
C "system" -- not encrypted
D "user" -- encrypted using Encryption Desktop 10.3.2 MP7
After restoring C (and I guess the MBR), the encrypted D partition appears as unformatted.
Looking through various older posts, it appears there is no way to edit or instrument the MBR forcing the boot process to ask for the D partition password at system start-up?
FYI -- after booting, I have tried commands such as pgpwde --recover -d 0 --passphrase "your passphrase" but no encrypted partition can be found. I also tried instrumenting the disk; the password prompt appears at boot for ~1 second and then disappears, the normal system start-up continues.
I would like to confirm if there is anyway the MBR (or wherever it needs to be done) can be configured to see the D partition as encrypted?
Thanks a lot...Peter
