# A Void Linux install (Unfinished)

This install is based on the [EFI boot stub](https://mth.st/blog/void-efistub/) blog entry from [Matthias Totschnig](https://mth.st/), the [Void Handbook](https://docs.voidlinux.org/about/index.html) and the Void Linux man pages

This guide focuses on a Void Linux x86-64 glibc/musl install. It is probably not applicable to other architectures.

In this install we're going to use gummiboot as bootloader and we're also going to encrypt the root partition.

## Provisioning

First off you'll need to partition your drive. It should have atleast two partitions with one `EFI System` Partition and one `Linux filesystem` partition.

It should look something like this:

| Number of partition | Size | Type |
|:-----:|:-----:|:-----:            |
| 1     |  1 to 2 GB | EFI System        |
| 2     |  Rest of the drive | Linux filesystem  |
