Someone please correct me if I am wrong, but as far as I can tell, the TPM
only stores EK, SRK, and (maybe) some owner-evict keys inside. The rest are
stored encrypted on the hard drive. If the OS is completely re-installed,
wouldn't that wipe out the disk area that the TPM is using the its key
storage? I couldn't find anywhere any indication that the TPM is using some
sort of "hidden" disk partition for its key storage that is not affected by
the OS. So I would think that after re-installing the OS, the on-disk key
storage would go away. Can anyone confirm that this is actually true?
