Last September I installed Debian 12 in my laptop with an encrypted LVM. Then I tried to add a secondary SSD, also as an encrypted volume, by following some random tutorial I found (spare me, it was my first time fiddling around with an encrypted installation). The next thing I remember is that I was in an initramfs shell trying to fix the boot process 😅🤣. Since I was running low on patience (and it was like 3 AM) I simply decided to nuke the install and start again. Eventually I was able to configure the SSD correctly, but this event reminded me how easily is to brick your system if you’re not careful enough. Fun times.
