[SOLVED] What is the change-file?

Post#1 by ITemplate » 19 Feb 2013, 16:58

Hi,

I've installed 1.2 on a USB key and it works great. I have created the data-file (porteussave.dat) as an encrypted file. And I have updated the boot to point to that file (/mnt/sdb1/porteussave.dat).

What will that file contain? For example if I save a document or download a file into guest/downloads - are these data really in that encrypted file?

Thanks.

Marked solved for you. Just click to edit you thread and add [SOLVED] before the title. I will add that the porteussave.dat file is only required on fat32 partitions which is usually the case for the standard USB pen drive.
