I think we should include Full Disk Encryption to the Gentoo installation handbook, as it is very important, most users use it (I assume), and it will be easier for someone like me who is not very knowledgeable, but wants to install and use Gentoo in a more secure manner.
Might also be nice to give some tips to the users/readers at the end of the handbook like: Enable TRIM if you have SSD, Enable secure boot, etc.
I am suggesting this as I recently tried to install with FDE, but failed/messed up somewhere. I was also on IRC at the time of installation for support, but there people pointed me to different sources/wikis and methods, which added to the confusion. I am sure if this was included in the handbook, I would have a nice bootable system in the end.
Anyway, what do you guys think about this? Should:
a) the installation guide or a version of a guide exist that covers encryption?
b) we add some tips (like: Enable TRIM if you have SSD, Enable secure boot, etc.) at the end?
Thank you |
