+# crypttab: Mappings for encrypted partitions
+#
+# Each mapped device will be created in /dev/mapper, so your /etc/fstab
+# should use the /dev/mapper/{NAME} paths for encrypted devices.
+#
+# Each PASSWORD field can be an absolute pathname to a key file (starting
+# with a slash, recommended) or a literal string that will be used as
+# a passphrase. To use special characters in the passphrase, surround it
+# by quotes, the usual bash quoting rules apply.
+# There are two special keywords that cannot be used as passphrases:
+#   - ASK  ask for a passphrase on boot
+#   - SWAP use a random key and create a swapspace afterwards
+# WARNING: use the SWAP keyword carefully, as it overwrites the data
+#          on the specified partition
+# 
+# To create a key file:
+#    hashalot -n 32 ripemd160 >/etc/crytfs.key
+# or
+#    dd if=/dev/urandom of=/etc/cryptfs.key bs=256 count=1
+#
+# To pass additional options to cryptsetup for non-LUKS partitions, use the
+# fourth column.
+#
+# NOTE: Do not list your root (/) partition here, it must be set up
+#       beforehand by the initramfs (/etc/mkinitcpio.conf).
