## Efficient UEFI Encrypted Root and Swap Arch Linux Installation Procedure with an ENCRYPTED BOOT


# OBJECTIVE:  Install Arch Linux with encrypted root and swap filesystems with an ENCRYPTED BOOT and boot from UEFI.  We will
also decrypt and mount our entire encrypted system using a single LUKS passphrase entry.

# Note:  This method supports both dedicated Arch installs and those who wish to install Arch on a multi-OS-UEFI booting system.

# External USB HDD/SSD Installers Notes:  Encrypted Arch installs can be booted and run from an external USB HDD or SSD, but
# only when the installation is correctly set up.  There are several necessary changes to my standard procedure you'll want
# to make during the install process.  Read my External USB HDD/SSD Installation section below before proceeding.
