when creating a tomb make sure the device mapper is loaded among kernel modules or creation will fail and leave you in the dust.

modprobe dm_mod modprobe dm_crypt

on Debian, do:

sudo aptitude install libdigest-sha1-perl sudo aptitude install ekeyd-egd-linux

/etc/default/ekeyd-egd-linux

wget http://egd.sourceforge.net/

perl ./egd.pl

/etc/init.d/ekeyd-egd-linux start
