PC-BSD(FreeBSD) Truecrypt Alternative
I gave a test run of PC-BSD 9.1 on an old dvd disk I burnt awhile ago. It didn't work with my old computer but I kept it around anyways. It installed perfectly, well except that the disk was damaged and would only go so far. Anyways it did something that surprised me. Disk encryption on install. And there was nothing complex about it. That was the one thing I was really hoping for. It took me a long time to get use to
luks encryption and lvm with Linux, not the easy way. Geli and the way BSD partitions are will take some more time for me to get use to. The last time I tried it, well geli was not my friend/
Anyways. I am downloading the PC-BSD 10 iso and will be installing it. The one thing I know will be an issue is Truecrypt. I have a backup/media/documents/etc 1TB drive encrypted with Truecrypt. I know that Truecrypt doesn't have anything for PC-BSD or any *BSD. Does anyone know if there is an alternative program I could use to at least decrypt that truecrypt backup drive of mine? Something that is good and won't cause any damage.
