I'm not sure what to do about the live CD problem, but in a previous iteration of this discussion a couple of years ago, I proposed that using a strong cipher (like AES) with a key installed at the factory was probably the right solution to the $40 embedded device problem. I can dig up my much longer exposition on that if anyone wishes. -- Perry E.
