Root FS encryption is currently blocked by bugzilla #124789. With these changes we would be able
to script something in %pre of kickstart to set up an encrypted root-fs even though
it would be better to have full encryption support in anaconda.
$HOME encryption as already possible with the current initscripts, but not supported (yet) by anaconda.
