This is an easy to follow guide to setting up full disk encryption during a Devuan install.
Since this an easy to follow guide we choose the quickest way to get you started.
You will need to complete all other steps and reach the part on partitioning disks before
you continue.
1) Choose to use the entire disk and set up encrypted LVM. This is the easiest way
to do this and recommended for new users.
2) Choose the disk that will be encrypted.
3) You will need to choose a partitioning scheme as usual. Since we want the easiest
way to full disk encryption choose to install all files in one partition.
4) You will need to write the partitioning scheme to the disk before encryption
can
be set up.
5) The installer will now inform you that it is erasing the disk. This will take some
time
if you have a lot of disk space available.
6) You should now create an encryption passphrase. For a secure passphrase I would
recommend a minimum of 20 characters, a mixture of upper and lower case letters,
at least three numbers and a minimum of two symbols.
7) Check the overview of changes to be written, and if you are happy with it write
the changes to disk.
8) Finally, confirm the changes and continue with the install.
