Secure boot usb

Community Tutorials
1

Hello,

I am interested in making a dull secure boot usb with DietPi for my laptop, just to do some banking.

I am following this article and hope it will work fine using DietPi

Questions:

  1. Following the above article, I want to run a bunch of sudo apt installs and some DE configurations/personalisations and then
  • make an extra encrypted usbdata partition to store videos/pictures/documents/etc
  • shrink the persistence so that no one can install anything further
  • make everything except the usbdata partition read-only

What extra command line commands do I need to run to accomplish this?

  1. In order to add launchers to the panel from the command line, what command should I run, for instance I like Terminator terminal app. I want to put everything into a text file that I can cut/paste into a terminal and run in case I need to recreate this boot usb without any manual work.

thanks

truth

DietPi is not an own operating system, it’s Debian with some scripting. Usually regular Debian guides should work. We don’t have own guides.
