For installing Debian Sid with LUKS2 encrypted BTRFS filesystem with Systemd-boot and rEFInd bootloaders plus an option for dualboot to Windows

For directly installing Debian Sid not supported by the Debian installer, namely:

  • Single LUKS2 encrypted partition which contains the full installation
  • Single BTRFS filesystem (integrated home partition)
  • Encrypted swapfile in BTRFS subvolume (supports laptop suspend but not hibernate)
  • Uses systemd-boot bootloader (instead of Grub2, also optional rEFInd instructions)
  • Minimal Gnome install (plus instructions for any other DE you wish)
  • Proper user groups for common security tools like sudo-less Wireshark, etc...
  • Optional removal of crypto keys from RAM during laptop suspend
  • Optional configurations for laptops (including fingerprint readers)
