Virtual-disk size = 512 MB and it’s created on /usr/ directoryDefault filesystem used = ext4Cipher options: Creating LUKS1: aes-xts-plain64, Key: 256 bits, LUKS header hashing: sha1, RNG: /dev/urandomplain: aes-cbc-essiv:sha256, Key: 256 bits, Password hashing: ripemd160 (about-time :D)Mounting point = /media/luks_* where * is random-string.Others..
