Hi,

I just setup GBDE on my laptop, encrypting my 512M cf-card.

How is this better/different from just adding the gbde device to
/etc/fstab and have it mounted along with all other filesystems?

It says in the handbook:

"Since encrypted file systems cannot yet be listed in /etc/fstab for automatic
mounting, the file systems must be checked for errors by running fsck(8)
manually before mounting."
