Of all the distros I've tried SalixOS is still the one I like best on my personal desktop. Very light, very fast, rock solid reliable, and yes, automated dependency checking works just fine.
If they could manage to put the ability to create encrypted partitions in the installer, that would get me to use it.
Whats the big deal about creating an encrypted partition ahead of time and just selecting it as an install target?

It sounds like it's doable, but not simple.

This is one case where it sounds like Slackware is actually easier.
