It would be great if gazelle supported installation on existing LUKS logical volume part of a volume group inside a LUKS container.
I've even had up to three distros coexisting in the same container, that could be easily wiped without reformatting and recreating partitions...
But if I try this with MX (after adding the missing lvm2 package), the installer crashes and quits.

I personally don't get the full disk encryption thing, but a lot of users have asked for it.
Required for work. HIPAA and all.

I will be following this feed too, since I also need security for HIPAA/ PIPA and GDPR type compliance. Curious to know what different options are adopted here.
