I secured my previously unencrypted Linux disk using cryptsetup across the entire device. I ran the command you mentioned to format it securely. However, I'm having trouble getting a bootable setup since the instructions seem tailored for single partitions. Can you clarify how to restore access after encryption?

You likely secured your boot drive with encryption, which the UEFI BIOS can't detect anymore. You'll probably have to undo the current protection and re-encrypt each partition. Check the resources at the provided links for guidance. A fresh live Linux installation will be necessary. Updated on January 4, 2021 by Nayr438

The system is set up but the information is gone. I’m spending a lot of time trying to fix it, and this manual isn’t helping. I’ll start over with encryption from the beginning.

Set up Windows on your device and avoid encountering this issue once more.
