I recently installed the newly released Ubuntu 24.04 LTS on my laptop. Canonical has introduced a revamped installation interface, which is visually appealing. However, I found that the options for manual disk configuration are limited. For instance, I couldn't manually set up LUKS encrypted partitions or utilize LVM. While the GUI lacks functionality in this aspect, you can on the other hand define any desired configuration in autoinstall.yaml.

Almost exactly a year ago I restructured my storage setup. I have always been careful with my files and that's why I moved over to ZFS on my storage server. No rotting bits here! One of the new things with my new setup is native ZFS encryption.
