Comment on Fresh Proxmox install w/ full disk encryption—so install Debian first, then Proxmox on top?

Another idea for you: if you use ZFS for the install, check Debian directions on OpenZFS or zfsbootmenu and you’ll get directions for an encrypted installation. You’ll be able to specify the path to a key file, which you can keep on a thumb drive. When the machine boots up, it’ll see the thumb drive and decrypt the zpool automatically; yank the thumb drive and it won’t (backup the key of course).

Thanks for the tip. I have no experience w/ ZFS, but I’ll keep this in mind in case I go that route. Thank you!

Here is a note it less automated install for root on zfs. Need at least three hdds preferably in an hba and can withstand the loss of at least one drive.

There is also an Ubuntu ZFS RAID 10 branch.

I think you can do the same with LUKS (cyberciti.biz/…/cryptsetup-add-enable-luks-disk-e…) if that’s your preferred route.
