Thought about full encryption

If I do not survive.
White scented lilies would be fine for the memorial service.

Well I have made some good progress and learnt some new stuff and had a lot of fun. Been a bit of a slog through loads of wiki's to collate all the info needed and had loads of run throughs which have still not got me a running system.

Fish are very slippery creatures

Yes, certainly the real aquatic fish are! And getting that elusive system installed can be nearly as bad for sure!

Hope it eventually works out for you!

Lorrie always has been a problem child. Just splash water back on her to get her to stop.

Well after an epic battle it looks like the barbarian has suffered a major defeat. After a total of twenty bloody skirmishes the barbarian has thrown in the towel.
It seems as though the combined might of the opposing forces made up of factions the, LVM, GPT and GRUB2 battled under the ARCH WIKI banner were just too much for the Barbarian.
It was the skilful use of the old penguin tactic The Red Herring Minefield that won the day for the AW.
It did look at one stage that the Barbarian had won the day. However AW had laid a sneaky trap by waving the "rescue >" flag and as the Barbarian rushed forward he was nudged into the Missing Piece Minefield.
Despite a brave effort to take the battle to an alternate reality where GPT forces do not exist. After a couple of skirmishes the Barbarian retreated to lick his wounds.
So the final score was,

Barbarian -- NIL

Arch Wiki -- Twenty
