I think it should work ("should", because the crypto stuff is still somewhat
untested) if you change the sda2 definition to

primary  -:encrypt  4096-   -    -


This is only true, however, for the experimental builds; please see
http://faiwiki.debian.net/index.php/Main_Page#getting_FAI for more information.
The crypto-patch will probably still be kept in there for another release or so
to receive more testing. As such, any kind of feedback is most welcome!

Best,
Michael
