Encrypted drive(Mint)

Present · 01-21-2019, 09:28 PM

Hi,

I installed Mint 19.1 on a new Huawei Mate X Pro i7. Works great and would like to also do an Arch installation. I encrypted the drive...

/etc/crypttab
nvme0n1p3_crypt UUID=23411e4d-e4e2-468b-a840-299dc4eee590 none luks,discard
cryptswap1 UUID=6ad99ccf-a54e-47ce-9adf-9ec5f11d7584 /dev/urandom swap,offset=1$

thanks

HAHA! You're right I SHOULD know...

I'm in Arch, brought wifi up, how do I mount the encrypted drive with fdisk? ... {fdisk -l below}

I haven't done much with encryption and UEFI - didn't see anything on duckduck that was a match.

Thanks for the encouragement.

-Edited: I didn't see anything here specifically directed at this either....
