I've been interested in Linux Lite for years and finally used it to build a dedicated system as my primary desktop. It's booting off an encrypted SSD, so LVM is already enabled. I'm using LL release 2.6 64-bit and would prefer to stick with this release unless upgrading is absolutely necessary. Hardware is an HP xw8400 PC.
I just added a pair of 2TB SATA HDDs to use as a RAID 1 data store. Set them up as RAID 1 mirrored drives called "storage" in the Intel Matrix Storage Manager and running GParted shows the individual drives as /dev/sdb and /dev/sdc, along with the RAID device as /dev/mapper/isw_beeaagchga_storage.
Here's where I'm stuck - how to turn the RAID 1 device into an encrypted volume? I've seen wildly varying instructions on various blogs and web sites and have tried a couple of different methods with no success. GParted doesn't seem to offer an obvious method.
This is my first post to this forum. Thanks in advance for the assistance.
