And changing the PR name doesn't fix the commit name, unfortunately ;) |
Fixed!!! And after reading |

Please make these changes in separate commits (can be in this same PR, though), since they are mostly unrelated. |

All done ! |

This is missing the mention of GRUB UEFI.

It's because, as I said before, to be more consistent with chroot.md, grub could be mentioned only later on as one of the last steps of the installation, and this would help by removing the mentions to modifications on ´/etc/default/grub´ on separate steps of the installation as well, by putting then all together at the end.
This could probably help further improvements of repetition removal on the fde.md guide in the future too, since the more consistent the flows of installation are with each other the easier it is to spot duplicated parts.
Making clearer to the reader that the actual installation command should use the appropriate URL.
Separating GRUB installation and configuration from the base-system section to make the installation procedures (chroot and fde) more consistent, making easier to mention one single source to avoid repetition.

May I suggest to use cryptsetup -y -v luksFormat /dev/sda1 (with explicit verbose and verify options, as well as removing the paragraph on luks1 and grub, provided it all works now with 2.06) and cryptsetup open --type luks /dev/sda1 voidvm (modern syntax) instead?
Making clearer to the reader that the actual installation command should
point to the correct repo for the chosen libc implementation, this helps
eliminate the possibility of a wrong system installation.
