#LUKS2 fully encrypted Arch-Linux
# LUKS2 fully encrypted Arch-Linux
As the Key-derivation functions for LUKS1 are lacking but GRUB normally only supports LUKS1, additional steps are required to get a working fully encrypted LUKS2 encrypted hard drive.
The basic process is similar to a LUKS1 encrypted hard-drive but afterwards before the reboot into your installed OS additional measures need to be taken.
This works only with UEFI-systems.
In this tutorial we're assuming you want to install everything to /dev/sda and an ext4 FS. BTRFS requires additional steps to my knowledge.

We want three partitions: sda1: 1M, sda2: 500M (your EFI), and the rest for your encrypted hard-drive.
Create partition table via `cfdisk` or similar tools.

Now we can overwrite our previously generated grubx64.efi with a luks2 compatible one:
```
grub-mkimage -p /boot/grub -O x86_64-efi -c /boot/grub/grub-pre.cfg -o /tmp/grubx64.efi lvm luks2 part_gpt cryptodisk gcry_rijndael argon2 gcry_sha256 ext2

We should now be done. exit, umount -R /mnt, and reboot into GRUB to see whether everything worked.
We should now be done. `exit`, `umount -R /mnt`, and `reboot` into GRUB to see whether everything worked.
This still requires you to enter your passphrase twice but can be alleviated just as with the LUKS1 case: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Dm-crypt/Device_encryption#With_a_keyfile_embedded_in_the_initramfs
