How to install Slackware64-current on NVME drive with LUKS?
by zveren from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5HZWV)
Hi all!
I am interested in installing Slackware64-current on my laptop to test out as a daily driver, but I am running into a couple problems, the first is that the EFI partition that was detected by the setup command seems to be the installer USB stick (/dev/sda) instead of the laptop's NVME drive (/dev/nvme0n1), also, there doesn't seem to be a way to setup encryption within the installer? I've found a few mentions about encrypted installs like here but it uses LVM, and I don't really need LVM all that much (at least, I don't think I do?). Does anyone know of any way to fix these problems? Sorry if this has been asked before, my apologies, I've only ever really used Ubuntu before, thank you! :)
