openSUSE Leap 16 partition configuration query

The filesystem I prefer is XFS, and I also want to have every partition - including the root partition - to be encrypted. It does work fine this way with 15.6 that I’m still running on some of my computers. Furthermore, I am eager to decide on my own about the sizes of my partitions.

But I have failed each and every time I’ve tried to accomplish such a setup using Agama’s interface as shown here. For the moment I am stuck with Leap 16 with btrfs on / and XFS on /home, but none of the partitions are encrypted.

Please note that for me, it looks like that all the choices I want to make are possible with Agama: to create all necessary and wanted partitions with XFS and to make them encrypted.

I’m the “BTRFS for / and XFS for /home” person too, for many years. Previous TW installs, current Leap 15.6 installs, and current Leap 16.

For fun, and to waste some time before I go grocery shopping, I decided to create your hope for installation (hopefully, I’m not confused). The new Leap 16 is currently in the install process, into a VBox virtual machine.

I configured / as BTRFS, /home as XFS (it’s the default in Agama when defining a separate /home), and ALL encrypted.

And this one to show the overall partition config, showing all is encrypted.
