 conr | * i mean i follwed the steps and it worked with /dev/sda1, /dev/sdb1/ etc... | 23:45:36 |
| conr | do i need a └─ like a subpartition? | 23:46:05 |
 ElvishJerricco | conr: oh, no, TYPE should say part for the physical partition. It says "crypt" for the unlocked virtual device | 23:46:45 |
| ElvishJerricco | you haven't cryptsetup open'd them yet | 23:46:52 |
| conr | i know how to do it with gdisk but not cfdisk | 23:47:11 |
| ElvishJerricco | they do the same thing | 23:47:31 |
| ElvishJerricco | you partition the disk, then you use cryptsetup luksFormat, then you use cryptsetup open | 23:47:48 |
| ElvishJerricco | you need to open them | 23:47:55 |
| conr | so did i do it right or need to do it over? | 23:48:00 |
| ElvishJerricco | seems like you're probably good if you did luksFormat already | 23:48:11 |
| conr | so now i can create the zpool and point to the /sda1, sdb1, etc...? | 23:48:46 |
| ElvishJerricco | no | 23:48:50 |
| ElvishJerricco | again | 23:48:52 |
| ElvishJerricco | for the third time | 23:48:54 |
| ElvishJerricco | you need to open them with cryptsetup open | 23:48:59 |
| conr | oh i'm sorry, yes. open them | 23:49:45 |

| conr | ok got it | 23:53:03 |
| ElvishJerricco | conr: yea so now you create a pool with those cryptssd1 devices and whatnot | 23:55:31 |
| 25 Mar 2024 |
| conr | cool. got it. | 00:06:06 |
| conr | * cool. got it setup. | 00:06:16 |
| conr | do i need to create a /etc/crypttab | 00:27:40 |
| conr | i don't have one | 00:27:42 |
 hexa | if this is a fresh install, nixos-generate-config should create hardware-configuration.nix with boot.inird.luks.devices entries | 00:29:32 |
| conr | i'm trying to just load it in level 2, not level 1 | 00:30:38 |
| ElvishJerricco | stage* 2 | 00:30:58 |
| ElvishJerricco | conr: Don't create /etc/crypttab. Just use the environment.etc option to have nixos create it. | 00:31:22 |
| conr | right stage 2 | 00:31:23 |
| conr | ok then add each value manually after? | 00:32:08 |
| conr | * ok then add each disk manually after? | 00:32:16 |
