Hi, thanks a lot for this repo!

I wonder if you could add some lines on how you install this on a new system, such as creating the partitions/encrypted partition and so on. I'm trying to set up encryption but can't get the system to boot

Thanks!

I cannot remember where I've seen, but seems like grub don't like to work with luks2, the default option for NixOS. If you make a FAT32 partition without encryption, you won't have a encrypted boot partition but your system will boot. If you find something useful for this situation, please let me know.

I setup mine like this article.
