Ah, yeah.  Acronis True Image (and whole-disk backup software in general)
don't work with whole-disk encryption in general.  There are some exceptions
... Some Casper product explicitly created to work with PGP for example...

I wonder if there's a hardware solution, that would make the encrypted disk
transparent to the OS, and hence, all the backup tools and other tools you
might use in the OS would remain functional...
