Arch Linux Full-Disk Encryption Installation Guide [Encrypted Boot, UEFI, NVMe, Evil Maid]

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.

S3 deep sleep for Lenovo yoga X1 3rd Generation on Fedora 28
This is a step-by-step guide on how make sleep mode work with a Lenovo Yoga X1 3rd generation running Fedora 28 (UEFI based system).
Kernel version: 4.17.4-200.fc28.x86_64
Credits: most of this guide comes from `https://delta-xi.net/#056`. The patch I used is a little different though, taken from http://kernel.dk/acpi.patch
(found through https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1794150#p1794150), and some of the steps slightly differ as well as mine is a UEFI based system.
1. Reboot, enter BIOS/UEFI. Go to Config - Thunderbolt (TM) 3 - set Thunderbolt BIOS Assist Mode to Enabled. Set also Security - Secure Boot to Disabled.
2. Install iasl (Intel's compiler/decompiler for ACPI machine language) and cpio: `sudo yum install acpica-tools cpio`
