djio01 / Efficient Encrypted UEFI-Booting Arch Installation
Created September 20, 2017 10:52 — forked from HardenedArray/Efficient Encrypted UEFI-Booting Arch Installation
An effcient method to install Arch Linux with encrypted root and swap filesystems and boot from UEFI. Multi-OS, and VirtualBox, UEFI-booting are also supported.
# OBJECTIVE: Install Arch Linux with encrypted root and swap filesystems and boot from UEFI.
# Note: This method supports both dedicated Arch installs and those who wish to install Arch on a multi-OS-UEFI booting system.
# VirtualBox Installers Notes: This installation method can also be used to install Arch Linux as an UEFI-booting
# Guest system in VirtualBox. You must have UEFI-booting enabled in VBox's Guest System Settings prior to installation.
# I have written a separate guide dedicated to the specifics of achieving an encrypted Arch Linux VirtualBox installation.
# My Arch Linux VirtualBox Guest installation guide is available at:
