Re: Fresh Install From Nightly Compose desktop-x86_64-20091002.15.iso

[Robert L Cochran <cochranb speakeasy net>]

To make it clearer what I really want: I already have a Fedora 12 system 
up and running but it does not appear to be encrypted.

If I follow the instructions below (at 
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/install-guide/f12/en-US/html/apcs04.html  )

will my Fedora 12 system be preserved, or will it be destroyed in the 
encryption process? I get the feeling the answer is it will be destroyed 
-- I need to encrypt a filesystem first and then install Fedora 12 
within that.

Thanks

Bob
