Err, right, it's not going to encrypt anything because the parser nicely takes
-:encrypt, but encryption only happens on partitions having a file system.
md1_crypt is never going to work, it should better notice that md1 is encrypted,
but that again must be fixed :-(

Well, for now, forget about the log file, I see quite clearly now what must get
fixed. I might still need the logfile later on.

Best,
Michael
