Arch Linux Full-Disk Encryption Installation Guide

This guide provides instructions for an Arch Linux installation featuring full-disk encryption via LVM on LUKS and an encrypted boot partition (GRUB) for UEFI systems.

Following the main installation are further instructions to harden against Evil Maid attacks via UEFI Secure Boot custom key enrollment and self-signed kernel and bootloader.

Preface

You will find most of this information pulled from the Arch Wiki and other resources linked thereof.

Note: The system was installed on an NVMe SSD, substitute /dev/nvme0nX with /dev/sdX or your device as needed.

How to recover a dropped stash in Git?

1. Find the stash commits

git log --graph --oneline --decorate ( git fsck --no-reflog | awk '/dangling commit/ {print $3}' )

This will show you all the commits at the tips of your commit graph which are no longer referenced from any branch or tag – every lost commit, including every stash commit you’ve ever created, will be somewhere in that graph.

Потоковая репликация PostgreSQL

Потоковая репликация (Streaming Replication) - это репликация, при которой от основного сервера PostgreSQL на реплики передается WAL (Write Ahead Log). И каждая реплика затем по этому журналу изменяет свои данные. Для настройки такой репликации все серверы должны быть одной версии, работать на одной ОС и архитектуре.

Шаги настройки:

1. Настройка master-сервера
2. Настройка доп. сервера (slave)
3. Тестирование репликации
