#76 TODO: document GELI (FreeBSD encryption) support in GNU GRUB

Open

GRUB has a module called geli, which presumably is for encrypted FreeBSD partitions.

FreeBSD uses a thing called Geli, which is similar to LUKS used on GNU+Linux systems.

It's potentially possible that we could have fully encrypted BSD installs on Retroboot systems now.
