I managed to get enlightenment running. I made a very silly mistake earlier.

exec enlightenment_start in .xinitrc end lines works.

and then startx.

Nope, no coreboot. I have to use proprietary bootloader unfortunately!

Never mind. Full encryption does not work without libreboot so I made 3 partitions and set things up.
Now stuck at this problem. How to start enlightenment DE? I use xdm and I try
"exec enlightenment_start" at the end of .xinitrc
but it throws some error.
If someone managed to install enlightenment, xenocara and xdm, please help!

Try console-tdm if you want a non-dbus option. It works quite well for me.

for display I mean...

Booting partition with cryptsetup

When setting up normally, I make 3 partitions, 1 bootable for efi, 1swap and the rest for root.

Currently, I'm installing hyperbola with cryptsetup following the guide in wiki. I'm unable to understand setup of grub since there is no booting partition which I normally mount at /boot/efi.

Edit configuration in /etc/default/grub, remembering to use UUID when pointing to mbr/gpt partition. Use blkid to get list of devices with their respective UUIDs

I don't know what to edit in /etc/default/grub . Please also explain UUID pointing to gpt partition too.

When I generate grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
I also get a warning

Failed to connect to lvmetad. Falling back to device scanning.

What does that mean. Is it problematic?
