@stefano Excellent! And clear and concisely written. My guess is the author has some experience in writing technical documentation, also with end-users in mind 😉
I recently setup Void on a laptop, with encryption enabled. But this overall setup makes it a truly secure and stable workhorse. So I will give it a go later this week. Thanks a lot, Stefano, highly appreciated 👍🏻 -

@stefano why not LUKS to cipher ZFS partition? First LUKS for system encryption and then ZFS encryption for user home encryption?

@stefano did you consider Arch Linux instead of Void Linux?

@zako AFAIK, zfsbootmenu doesn't support booting from LUKS. You should then use grub, and/or a separate /boot partition, etc.

@zako not for this kind of setup. Still, I like Arch. Manjaro has been my daily driver for years, back in the late 2010s, and Arch has been my daily driver even before.
