I made these choices during the installation process (Ubuntu 24.04):-
Erase Disk and install Ubuntu
Use LVM and encryption
NB: Remember to choose the external disk
New screenshot of Review your choices attached
Having booted the encrypted, external disk, here is the partition info (created automatically)
Two outputs - lsblk and parted
Code:
test@test:~$ lsblk -e7
