| Fedora Test Day - Encrypted Block Device Installation

| It's time to kick the tires on encrypted block device installation support in F10-Alpha. There have been several changes on this front recently, most notably the arrival of [http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/BetterStartup plymouth]. The plan is meet and try to poke holes in encrypted block device installations. We'll have a host of QA and Development characters hanging out discussing bugs (aka "features"), expectations, and test areas. I've included details below for how you can contribute below.

| Have you tried installing using an encrypted block device yet? Support for installing to encrypted block devices was added in Fedora 9 (see https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Anaconda/Features/EncryptedBlockDevices). While this support has been present for an entire release, it hasn't yet been given a thorough test review. Additionally, with the presence of [http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/BetterStartup plymouth], the method by which unlocking your encrypted devices has changed dramatically.

| Much like a field hospital, bug triage describes the art of quickly addressing the big issues in a bug, and moving it on for further review by the development team. Unlike a field hospital, there ''should'' be no blood or gunfire. The triage process has generated quite a following. As outlined on the [[BugZappers]] home, triage is a several step process:
