Need help adding second nvme luks2

Okey I seem to be failing to add second nvme luks2 with BTRFS on aeon. I guess I am missing something since now it won’t boot anymore just black screen and when enrolling it says failed to load super block:invalid argument

Where I have gone wrong correct steps would help if someone knows

It might help if you would show what you have done to get a no longer booting system. Commands, steps, snippets, used tutorials or guides, and so on…

So to understand you correctly, you added the second nvme according this thread and now you want to apply LUKS?

Yes second nvme to aeon install BTRFS Pool. Installer setups luks2 with TPM2 etc auto unlock

What I did is

sudo cryptsetup luksFormat --type luks2 --cipher aes-xts-plain64 --hash sha256 /dev/nvme1n1

Then mount
sudo btrfs device add /dev/mapper/luks-nvme1n1 /mnt/your_existing_btrfs_mountpoint
Sign it or adding it to systemd-cryotenroll

sudo systemd-cryptenroll --tpm2-device=auto --tpm2-pcrs=7 /dev/mapper/luks-nvme1n1

I might be missing something or doing something on wrong order I am close to get it tho

I think I might need to go for btrfs RAID on this not just extend btrfs

@PhatLe which is outside the scope of Aeon, your better to just look at MicroOS and build up the requred desktop from there…

Oh so microOS training then. So did I understand correctly that aeon will stay on single drive OS if using LUKS? Or just on raid part is out of scope and if so the BTRFS extend then should work in theory

@PhatLe One disk and one OS… no dual/multiboot, FDE using systemd boot with either TPM and no secure boot (Suggested) or fallback with entering the paraphrase.

Well then the solution is for me get one huge nvme and use that no more tweaking or testing and problem solved

@PhatLe that would be the best solution… I have a 256GB in my test system… it’s only using about 12GB…

Just went and put order in hope tomorrow or Tuesday it will arrive new Samsung 990 pro 4TB NVME then I will put those to second laptop and extend PS5 so no waste still and I will kill multiple things on this purchase no hassle anymore
