Hey I have to make a file system with an encrypted partition with on ubuntu server. something like

Unencrypted:
/ - 10 GB
/home - 10GB
/var - 5GB
--------------
Encrypted:
/opt - 50GB

This I can figure out in the setup, just partition as normal, setup /tmp as a encrypted volume with dm-crypt. However im not sure how to mirror this entire drive, so that if either failed i could still boot. and how will that affect the encrypted partition.

Any help would be appreciated.
