Arch Linux with LUKS and btrfs on a hetzner server (DRAFT)

This guide should show you how to set up an System with the following specifications on an hetzner server:

  • Arch Linux
  • btrfs
  • LUKS

Legend

The following symbols show you where to execute the code:

  • 💻 Client
  • 🚑 Rescue System
  • 👻 Chroot from Rescue System into Arch
  • 💽 Arch Os

Guide

1. Configure and Install Image

1.1 Login to Hetzner Rescue System

💻 :

ssh root@your_server_ip

1.2 Create the /autosetup

🚑 :

nano /autosetup

Save the following content into this file:

##  Hetzner Online GmbH - installimage - config

DRIVE1 /dev/sda
DRIVE2 /dev/sdb

##  SOFTWARE RAID:
## activate software RAID?  < 0 | 1 >
SWRAID 1

## Choose the level for the software RAID < 0 | 1 | 10 >
SWRAIDLEVEL 1

##  BOOTLOADER:
BOOTLOADER grub

##  HOSTNAME:
HOSTNAME hetzner-arch-luks
#Adapt the hostname to your needs

##  PARTITIONS / FILESYSTEMS:
PART /boot  btrfs     512M
PART lvm    vg0       all
LV vg0   swap   swap     swap         8G
LV vg0   root   /        btrfs        10G

##  OPERATING SYSTEM IMAGE:
IMAGE /root/.oldroot/nfs/install/../images/archlinux-latest-64-minimal.tar.gz

1.3 Install Image

🚑 :

installimage

1.4 Restart

🚑 :

reboot

2. Setup System

2.1 Login to server

💻 :

ssh-keygen -f "$HOME/.ssh/known_hosts" -R your_server_ip
ssh root@your_server_ip

2.2 Update the system

💽 :

pacman -Syyu

2.3 Install administration tools:

💽 :

pacman -S nano

3. Prepare System for Unlocking via SSH

3.1 Execute the following script

💽 :

pacman -S busybox mkinitcpio-dropbear mkinitcpio-utils mkinitcpio-netconf
cp -v ~/.ssh/authorized_keys /etc/dropbear/root_key

3.2 Modify /etc/mkinitcpio.conf

💽 :

nano /etc/mkinitcpio.conf
Replace

Old:

HOOKS=(base udev autodetect modconf block mdadm_udev lvm2 filesystems keyboard fsck)

New:

HOOKS=(base udev autodetect modconf block mdadm_udev lvm2 netconf dropbear encryptssh filesystems keyboard fsck)

⚠️ In the original example the initramfs get modified. Don't know if this is still necessary: /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf
Alt: BUSYBOX=auto
Neu: BUSYBOX=y

4. Activate Encryption

4.1 Activate Rescue System

Activate the rescue system https://robot.your-server.de/server

4.2 Reboot

💽 :

reboot

4.3 Login to the rescue system

💻 :

ssh-keygen -f "$HOME/.ssh/known_hosts" -R your_server_ip
ssh root@your_server_ip

4.4 Mount the "system"

🚑 :

vgscan -v
vgchange -a y
mount /dev/mapper/vg0-root /mnt

4.5 Copy "system"

🚑 :

echo 0 >/proc/sys/dev/raid/speed_limit_max
mkdir /oldroot
cp -va /mnt/. /oldroot/.
echo 200000 >/proc/sys/dev/raid/speed_limit_max

4.6 Unmount the "system"

🚑 :

umount /mnt

4.7 Delete decrypted LVM-Volume-Group

🚑 :

vgremove vg0

4.8 Check drive state

🚑 :

cat /proc/mdstat

4.9 Encrypt MD1 by executing

🚑 :

cryptsetup --cipher aes-xts-plain64 --key-size 256 --hash sha256 --iter-time=10000 luksFormat /dev/md1
cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/md1 cryptroot
pvcreate /dev/mapper/cryptroot
vgcreate vg0 /dev/mapper/cryptroot
lvcreate -n swap -L8G vg0
lvcreate -n root -L10G vg0
mkfs.btrfs /dev/vg0/root
mkswap /dev/vg0/swap

4.10 Mount encrypted

🚑 :

mount /dev/vg0/root /mnt

4.12 Copy "system"

🚑 :

# Resync unterbrechen
echo 0 >/proc/sys/dev/raid/speed_limit_max
cp -av /oldroot/. /mnt/.
# Resync fortsetzen
echo 200000 >/proc/sys/dev/raid/speed_limit_max

4.13 Integrate Finale Installation

🚑 :

mount /dev/md0 /mnt/boot
mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev
mount --bind /sys /mnt/sys
mount --bind /proc /mnt/proc
chroot /mnt

4.14

👻 :

echo "cryptroot /dev/md1 none luks" >> /etc/crypttab

4.15 Create an initial ramdisk

👻 :

mkinitcpio -p linux

5 Grub

5.1 Install Grub

👻 :

pacman -S grub

5.2 Configure /etc/default/grub

👻 :

⚠️ I'm not shure if the following is correct. Please check out this link . I appreciate feedback 💕

Edit /etc/default/grub and tell the Kernel about the cryptdevice and the mdraid, and netconf that we want dhcp:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="cryptdevice=/dev/md0:root ip=dhcp"

5.3 Make and Install on Hard-drives

👻 :

grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
grub-install /dev/sda
grub-install /dev/sdb

5.4 Restart System

👻 🚑 :

exit
umount /mnt/boot /mnt/proc /mnt/sys /mnt/dev
umount /mnt
sync
reboot

6. Encryption Procedure

6.1 Decrypt server

💻 :

ssh  -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null root@your_server_ip
cryptroot-unlock
exit

6.2 Login to server

💻 :

ssh-keygen -f "$HOME/.ssh/known_hosts" -R your_server_ip
ssh root@your_server_ip

7.1. Debugging

7.2 Login to System from Rescue System

🚑 :

cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/md1 cryptroot
mount /dev/vg0/root /mnt
mount /dev/md0 /mnt/boot
mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev
mount --bind /sys /mnt/sys
mount --bind /proc /mnt/proc
chroot /mnt
