Endpoint Encryption

My laptop is thinkpad t440p, and installed windows7 and fedora21 in order as a dual-boot system machine and the PGP is running on the windows. I used partition encryption mode to encrypt windows 7 boot partition(which is c:), leave fedora21 un-encrypted. Without encrypting the windows7`s partition everything works fine. After the encryption I just cannot boot into fedora any more, but it`s ok for windows. I can get into the fedora`s boot menu(where I can select and boot up windows), but can not start up fedora and with no message to hint where is wrong. I have tried using grub command line to boot fedora with the following commands: >set root=(hd0, 3) >linux16 /fedora-kernel(I don`t remember the full name, just as the follow command) >initramfs16 /...img >boot and I got the message: "Probing edd (edd=off to disable)..." something like that and frozen!

Greetings tommas1988,

Thank you for giving us the oppurtunity to assit you thorugh the connect forums.

As far as PGP is concerned, Encryption on Dual boot is not supported and will surely give you boot up issues on either of the Operating systems.

Fedora is not officially supported, however i would like to suggest few pointers here.

1. Please check if the machine supports Fedora
2. making sure the latest Firmware is installed for the system.
3. While Installing Fedora, pass a kernel parameter as EDD= off

Let us know how it goes from here

Apolgies for the delay in getting back

Hello Encryption Desktop for Linux System Requirements: http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH224419 Fedora is not in the list. Did you installed PGP client on Fedora OS? You must follow the rule if use dual system: 1,dual system both on one disk 2,install pgp client in all system 3,start encrypt after pgp client installed
