Hi sky42. I found df worked even better for me.

Following the above instructions went fine up until the formatting steps. I'm not sure the dd command finished or even worked and the mkfs.ext4 responded with something saying read-only. I came to the conclusion this is way over my head and decided I'll wait for the day if/when someone builds a GUI for using these encryption tools. For now I'll just settle for accessing my files on a Linux Mint Samba share located on an external HDD with full-disk encryption.

Thanks for the tips and making this custom LE build

Hello. Is there a wiki page with instructions on how to use these tools in LE? I just want to encrypt an external HDD. I've been trying to use these instructions but there doesn't appear to be a way to list all the drives in LE using the `lsblk` command nor does there appear to be a command to install lsblk. I tried the df command but couldn't find my external HDD. Can someone please help me?
