  • Same as you would on MacOS :

    • ditch the .deb package because it’s the wrong tool for the job here.
    • Squashfs image with encryption
    • Set keyring entries and a wrapper script to manage lock/unlock. If you already know the hardware platform of all users, this can even be improved upon

    I have no idea why someone would be using Debian packages to distribute something like this though, if that’s the question. Absolutely not going to work well.















  • You’ll still be running into frequent issues if you go with R-V, so be warned.

    That being said, the Framework R-V board only comes for the 13" format, so you can buy a cheap Framework 13 refurb from their store (fully warranted and everything), and swap the board out for the R-V for $200.

    There are other R-V laptops out there, but I think the build quality is nowhere near the Framework, AND if you feel like it sucks, just swap that board back with the one it shipped with.
