TrueCrypt 5.1

Posted by micele - 11/03/08 at 11:03:15 am

.. is out now! Just 27 days after the 5.0a Release.

Thank god, they brought back the command line interface for Linux and Mac OS X. With the 5.0 release the GUI (so far only known by Windows user) was established on all platforms. This was quite a good improvement but in return the removed the possibility to create and manage volumes on the command line…
It seems they realized this mistake and fixed it
In addition TrueCrypt now supports hibernation on Windows platforms with encrypted system partitions and the bootloader is now compressed so that it takes only 27 KB. This is an advantage especially for systems where the BIOS needs a lot of memory.

For the hole list of improvements and bug-fixes view the changelog.

Get it!
