I've had problems with diskusage crashing on me without truecrypt. install qtparted or gparted from debian. They are much more stable and powerful than diskusage. I can bring up truecrypt in command line I just don't know how to create partition via command line. Truecrypt 6 is very powerful and stable. Truecrypt 6 doen't have a Easycrypt gui yet. I hope securix will get around to doing it. The combo of truecrypt with Easycrypt on Nxx platform is a really powerful setup for protecting sensitive files.
