   Archinstall is such a joke. I fixed an issue that hasn't been fixed in 2 years.... in 5 minutes.

     @Jain unfortunately installing arch with luks is so painful that archinstall is really the only option for me
     
     i need to pr that fix into archinstall in order to make the maintainers realize how much a joke this project is

     @astenix i tried it with a more general setup, without remote decryption... and even then i had a bad experience with archinstall

     @astenix basically my initramfs has a ssh server in it... theoretically not that complicated, but i can remember that i had some network issues after booting the real kernel which required me to thinker a bit...
     
     maybe i take a look at archinstall again when i setup a new server

     @Jain i use local decryption, it works fine for that
     not sure how i'm going to deal with remote decryption though.... i probably don't want to use arch on a server

     @Jain yeah i know how remote decryption works... i'll try setting it up with archinstall since i really don't want to install arch manually

     @Jain also, what server setup are you currently using? like the OS (probably arch but whatever), bootloader, etc.
     i don't really know what to use myself
