Lately I have been doing some hardened desktop Linux setups for friends and family based on LMDE 6.

My setup included features like:

  • full disk encryption with LUKS with paranoid encryption complexity levels

  • BTRFS filesystem

    • Timeshift snapshots support

Additionally for Thinkpads that support 2 SSD drives:

  • root filesystem on BTRFS RAID 1 consisting of each disk fully encrypted with LUKS

I am considering sharing these scripts, as common installer options or even tutorials do not come near the setups mentioned. Let me know if this is something you'd find interesting.

I have a old Thinkpad (2017 I think?) with a single SSD , not sure if it will take a second SSD drive or not, it is kind of retired at the moment , this might bring it out of retirement though :) .

Do you know what model your Thinkpad is? Recently I've setup the T480 for someone. It was like $100 for the laptop. This thing works so well. Currently waiting for the second drive adapter from Aliexpress. With some tweaks it currently draws 3.5W of power when idle :)
