Complete system encrypt of OSX with Ubuntu in VMware

Knut Ole

hi,

i'm looking for a detailed tutorial on how to set up a fully encrypted osx (snowleopard) with (x)ubuntu, with the latter preferably as a hidden system as well. i see the new lion supports full system encryption, but i'm looking for a pre-lion solution.

does anyone have experience with this, or know of any detailed resources to guide me through it?

also, will the whole system encryption encrypt everything but the boot loader, ie. including all traces of the ubuntu? Or could the vmware and ubuntu be completely hidden even if system is decrypted? ie., is it possible to enclose the whole vmware/ubuntu in a cryptbox and leaving NO trace? (in effect a truecrypt hidden op system)




MUCH APPRECIATED!
thanks in advance,
k

Create an encrypted disk image that contains VMware + Ubuntu VDI (virtual disk image). Then add a hd password to the OSX side of things.
