✨ NAME ✨

reform-setup-encrypted-nvme — setup encrypted SSD 🔐💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

reform-setup-encrypted-nvme [--help] [DEVICE_PATH]

---

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

so what this does is: it sets up the SSD with LUKS encryption that contains LVM2 volumes for swap and the rootfs. like, the whole thing, locked up, no cap 🔒✨

and then — the part where it's giving main character energy — it offers to run reform-migrate and reform-boot-config for you, so the initramfs in /boot gets set up to load the rootfs from that encrypted SSD. bestie it's doing the whole choreography for you 🫶

---

👑 OPTIONS 👑

• --help — display this help and exit. that's it, that's the whole vibe 🙈
• --force — avoid user interaction: it runs reform-migrate and puts /boot on eMMC if allowed. > heads up bestie: this one requires the passphrase on standard input, so no sitting there typing it in all cute, it wants it piped in. no y/n prompts, it just goes 🔥

🍓 Arguments: 🍓

• [DEVICE_PATH] — if you give it one, this is the path to the SSD device, or a disk image file to loop into this role (yes, a whole image file, iconic). if you leave it empty, a model-specific default gets used instead ✨
