  • No, there’s a longstanding pattern to solve the group issue.

    1. Add users that need write perms to the same group (create a new group if it makes sense to do so)
    2. Set the directory’s group to that group
    3. Set the directory perms to group writable
    4. Set the SGID bit for the directory (chmod g+x for existing dirs, but you can set the umask so new dirs get it too)

    1-3 ensures everyone that needs to write can, and 4 will make any file created in that dir inherit the group from the dir instead of the creating user. So future files will still be writable due to group write perms.


  • Caveat: I’ve used LUKS quite a bit, but never to do exactly what you’re trying to do, so the following is a guess.

    If the root disk was the encrypted one, the tooling would add scripts to your initramfs to handle the prompting and unlocking at boot.

    Since it’s not the root, those scripts may not be getting added.

    I’m not sure about the “right” way to force it to add them, but you should be able to manually tweak your initramfs setup to add them.



  • In no particular order:

    • Kerbal Space Program
    • Factorio
    • Rimworld
    • Valheim
    • Minecraft (Java)
    • Ark SE

    Those are my main games and easy for me to pick.

    The last 4 slots are tougher. They’re likely to change the longer I think about it.

    • Some version of Civilization. I’m not sure which I’d prefer.
    • Something technical. Shenzen IO, Human Resource Machine, MHRD, etc
    • EverQuest. If a live service MMO isn’t allowed, I could arguably run a private, emulated server using the EQ emu project.
    • If I can pick a sold-as-one collection that I bought years ago but is no longer available for purchase, it would probably be a collection of Infocom text adventure games.
