The good news is that <a href="http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/RealCrypt" title="Realcrypt Version 6.0" rel="nofollow"> now installs from Mandriva 2008.1 source, with a GUI. For duds like myself, it's a big relief. Cheers and thanks again. I tried this before and my skills were not sufficient to get it working in spite of your excellent guide.

Then I changed directory to a place on another partition and tried to realcrypt -d, but it said the device was in use and couldn't be unmounted. I was no longer even logged in as the user that put the files on the encrypted partition. I closed all my konsole windows just to be sure and opened a new one, but it still wouldn't let me unmount. Finally I did a reboot. Then when I tried to realcrypt -i and mount it again, it said no such file or directory. :( I went through all these steps, was able to create and mount the normal encrypted partition and even put a few files there.
