The current script doesn't rely on partition types. It relies on the signature
check performed by fstype, which is identical to the signature check performed
by "cryptsetup isLuks". Maybe I should change the fstype check to the
cryptsetup check for readability though.

As for using encrypted= instead of cryptopts=, I do not see the point. Having
ROOT set to the to-be root device all trough the local-top and local-premount
scripts means that evms/lvm/whatever will not be possible as the underlying
device.

Additionally, I won't work with partman-crypto (the experimental
install-to-encrypted root module that is under development for
debian-installer).

Thanks for the feedback (and especially for the cryptsetup isLuks reminder).

Regards,
David
