I assume that there is really nothing i386 specific in this list of modules and that I should add it to all the (2.6 only?) kernels for all arches?
Yes, the modules should be available for all 2.6 kernels for all arches.
I would prefer to keep things minimal by only including modules actually used by encryption methods that partman-crypto supports using. Does it support every module in this list?
It would be trivial to support all of them. It's an entirely different question if we want to do so. The patches I'm writing right now for partman-crypto has preliminary support for aes, blowfish, twofish and serpent (but adding more is as simple as editing a few text files).
In addition, sha256 is needed for the IV generation algorithm. So a minimal list is right now: aes blowfish twofish serpent sha256
Max, do you already have this stuff sorted out and patches created? Don't want to duplicate effort.
As far as I understood things when talking to Max prior to submitting this bug report, the answer is no. Max has focused on the loop-AES implementation and not this stuff (device-mapper).
