Initial setup with LUKS/dm-crypt

This exemplary initial setup uses two devices /dev/sdb and /dev/sdc but can be applied to any amount of devices by following the steps with additional devices.

Create keyfile:

dd bs=64 count=1 if=/dev/urandom of=/etc/cryptkey iflag=fullblock
chmod 600 /etc/cryptkey
