User:Ben/FuntooServer UEFI LUKS RAID1

This is a quick write up on how I installed an encrypted Funtoo Server on my OVH Server

Open TODOs

• storage raid will currently not be decrypted and mounted automatically.

Assumptions

You will have an Ryzen or Epyc Server with:

• 2x NVMe SSDs
• 2+ Storage Disks
• IPMI or remote KVM access when the server boots
• a running Linux installation on one of the storage disks
