Change Details

Grab a snapshot. Install automated ZFS with GELI enabled. Bonus: for added bonus, use more than one vdev. Reboot. The boot loader should display "GELI Passphrase:" prompting you to enter your geli(8) passphrase to later mount the root device(s).

Drop a head copy of check-password.4th into /boot and then apply the patch (only the patch to /boot/check-password.4th is required; no other changes are required but you do have to have a HEAD copy of check-password.4th to apply the patch). NB: The rest of your /boot files can be up to 2 years old but no older. NB: The test won't work unless your kernel has the following change https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=273489 Then put into /boot/loader.conf: geom_eli_passphrase_prompt="YES" and reboot.
