I was setting up a system using debian bookworm, and recently one of my systems running unstable had problems running out of space in /boot because some recent kernel's drivers got very big.
But I also wanted an encrypted disk which involves getting lvm and luks set up in some specific way for the debian initramfs scripts to load correctly.
I tried to manually configure the partitions but got something wrong and the system couldn't find the crypt partitions to load.
I have tried again, but while in the installer I edited /lib/partman/recipes-amd64-efi/30atomic to bump up the ext2 /boot partition to 1.5G and then told the installer to do automatic partitioning with encrypted disks and now have a bigger /boot partition ready for those new bloated kernels.
