I am interested in setting up a Live USB stick for myself using this how to:
http://trisquel.info/en/wiki/how-create-liveusb
I am planning touse the option "Store in reserved extra space". My question is, is it possible to encrypted the USB stick, know of how you can encrypted the full HDD when doing a standard Trisquel installation?
To boot encrypted media you need a boot loader that can do the unencryption for the boot partition and a kernel in the boot partition that can also do the unecryption.
So, one way or another your boot loader, probably GNU GRUB 2, should be somewhere outside that encrypted media and *should* have support for the type of encryption you are going to use for your new drive. Any of the commercial BIOSes can't help you here.
