Hello,
I've been using Debian Linux for some time, but I wanna give FreeBSD a try because I like some facts about it.
I do the first steps in a VM for easy rollback, but after that I'll install it on the 2nd drive on my laptop.
Because its a laptop, full disc encryption is mandatory for me.
The guided installer offers ZFS encryption but the tooltip says it will be done using geli.
I've read somewhere that FreeBSD 13.0 does support native ZFS encryption and I assume its the better route to go.
How do I manually install FreeBSD with native ZFS encryption?
In the handbook's installation chapter I couldn't find any useful information.
Is it even worth the trouble, or should I go with the installer's geli option?
Thank you in advance!
