I have no idea how it works either, but it seems to work fine on the same partition. Apparently ecryptfs uses a sort of filesystem-within-a-filesystem approach to encrypting areas of a partition, rather than the entire partition. The only downside to disk encryption in general is that (for me at

Oh, glad you like it. I'm not sure how we could create permanent info about this (never done that). Let's try to do that ...

Thanks for posting the question and the answer. One question of mine: does it require to the home directory be in its own partition (in the installer choosing a separate partition for swap, home and system) ?? Or can it be in the same partition and it will just encrypt the directory (dunno

This is very useful, thanks so much for posting your solution. I like the idea of encrypting my /home in a production system, but I don't really like doing it when I install, because if something goes wrong with the new install, the encrypted /home makes it tricky to use a live disc to
