Am I the only person who does not see the benefit of using LVM on a Virtual Machine?

It makes somewhat sense on a physical machine, but not on a VM in my world.

fliegt 2025 aus dem Linux-Kernel raus. Vor vielen Jahren fand ich das Dateisystem noch ganz toll, inzwischen gibt es einfach viel bessere Alternativen.
Ich nutze bei meinen Linux-Systemen eigentlich immer mit - was nehmt Ihr so?

I'm setting up an with encrypted () root partition (an volume) The /boot partition is left *unencrypted*. I want to decrypt my root partition through .

I'm following this guide, with and : s.42l.fr/bFl-G4_w

I'm facing two big problems:
1 - dropbear starts *after* a passphrase is provided for the root partition;

2 - dropbear fails to load dropbear_dss_host_key and dropbear_ed25519_host_key.

Also, side note:

Is LUKS on LVM such an exotic setup? All the websites I found explaining resizing partitions in conjunction with were specifically about LVM on LUKS

Had to jump through quite a few hoops to figure out how resizing worked when the LUKS container is stacked on top of LVM (instead of the other way around like most people seem to be doing it?)

I’m in the process of replacing my with . But I’m on dual boot machine. And I need Debian + . It looks a bit of a nightmare compared to the wizard. I’m so lost. Has anyone done this before, preferably via the gui wizard?

Ah, so soll's sein. Dualboot von Linux und Windows, beide Systeme eigene Platte, beide voll verschlüsselt und beide brauchen kein Login zusätzlich zum Entschlüsseln. Und Hibernate geht auch bei beiden. Beim Aufsetzen der Systemverschlüsselung kriegt Windows aber trotzdem Bonuspunkte für Einfacheit.

@ck Honestly I’d expect recommended package to be installed in a default setup. That said, thinly-provisioned pools in are not that common so maybe that’s OK? 🤷🏻‍♂️

I recall having this exact same problem back in 2012/2013 when I was building a “NAS” off of my netbook (yes, really; no, it was a terrible idea) where I was experimenting with thin provisioning in LVM, also on .

Thanks for all of your troubleshooting posts, always enjoy them immensely! 🙌🏻

I'd forgotten I'd chosen btrfs on the new desktop, until I went to lvextend a partition... So now it's just 2 commands instead of one... And I'm just using that fs on top of stock software RAID and LVM to avoid the more questionable parts.
