[SOLVED] archinstall failed to encrypt

Hello,
this is my first post after my first steps with Arch, please be lenient. I installed Arch using archinstall after a former successful installation based on the Installation guide left me with too many problems while setting up a desktop system. During the archinstall configuration I activated disk encryption. Now the encryption password is not needed during the login, the blkid output is

/dev/nvme0n1p3: UUID="35bead49-b257-47ff-b9a8-f6f4a5a7e356" BLOCK_SIZE="4096" TYPE="ext4" PARTLABEL="primary" PARTUUID="945cb9ac-aa71-4ba3-9d99-a06245e950af"
/dev/nvme0n1p1: UUID="1A27-0E3F" BLOCK_SIZE="512" TYPE="vfat" PARTLABEL="primary" PARTUUID="e1e2879e-53fa-4fbd-a21e-4f61589801d5"
/dev/nvme0n1p2: UUID="dc65c3e3-52b3-4e78-a315-f265981f0a4e" BLOCK_SIZE="4096" TYPE="ext4" PARTLABEL="primary" PARTUUID="717aacba-aed4-4291-b68b-cad59fd3e651"
/dev/zram0: LABEL="zram0" UUID="77914f14-10c0-4108-be65-e377868f235f" TYPE="swap"

Since TYPE = ext4 I assume that the encryption failed. What happened, how can I figure out more about what happened?

Thanks in advance

Re: [SOLVED] archinstall failed to encrypt

so, what is your actual problem?
are you trying to verify that a partition is encrypted?
I guess you also found this: https://unix.stackexchange.com/question … d-on-linux
post "lsblk -f"
which partition(s) should be encrypted?
Else I am not to familiar with archinstall (or encryption, to be honnest), sorry

Why I run Arch? To "BTW I run Arch" the guy one grade younger.
And to let my siblings and cousins laugh at Arsch Linux...

Re: [SOLVED] archinstall failed to encrypt

Sligtly off-topic, but

a former successful installation based on the Installation guide left me with too many problems while setting up a desktop system

What makes you think this is gonna end up being any different when using a script that already didn't produce the installation you expected?

It happened to me, after selecting luks encryption I forgot to select which disk to encrypt, make sure you do it after activating disk encryption.

Thank you for your answer. lsblk -f gives

I assume that the hard drive is not encryptet at all. Now I was reading the Arch wiki about how to encrypt an existing unencrypted file system, but I don't get the point. If I want to encrypt "the system", I have to encrypt partitions. Which options are available? What does it mean regarding security concerns encrypting only /home.

Please post your entire archinstall log.

This is what possibly happenend. I will try to encrypt the system now after understanding better the encryption itself.

Re: [SOLVED] archinstall failed to encrypt

Hello,
this is my first post after my first steps with Arch, please be lenient. I installed Arch using archinstall after a former successful installation based on the Installation guide left me with too many problems while setting up a desktop system. During the archinstall configuration I activated disk encryption. Now the encryption password is not needed during the login, the blkid output is

/dev/nvme0n1p3: UUID="35bead49-b257-47ff-b9a8-f6f4a5a7e356" BLOCK_SIZE="4096" TYPE="ext4" PARTLABEL="primary" PARTUUID="945cb9ac-aa71-4ba3-9d99-a06245e950af"
/dev/nvme0n1p1: UUID="1A27-0E3F" BLOCK_SIZE="512" TYPE="vfat" PARTLABEL="primary" PARTUUID="e1e2879e-53fa-4fbd-a21e-4f61589801d5"
/dev/nvme0n1p2: UUID="dc65c3e3-52b3-4e78-a315-f265981f0a4e" BLOCK_SIZE="4096" TYPE="ext4" PARTLABEL="primary" PARTUUID="717aacba-aed4-4291-b68b-cad59fd3e651"
/dev/zram0: LABEL="zram0" UUID="77914f14-10c0-4108-be65-e377868f235f" TYPE="swap"

Since TYPE = ext4 I assume that the encryption failed. What happened, how can I figure out more about what happened?

Thanks in advance

It happened to me, after selecting luks encryption I forgot to select which disk to encrypt, make sure you do it after activating disk encryption.

I made this mistake. Thank you for your help
