Full disk encryption with LUKS2 + Argon

If you must use grub then yes

That is also correct.

I have been investigating how to work around this limitation in grub.

From what I found - one could try to update the encrypted filesystem to use luks2 PKBDF as grub only supports this variant.

luks2 + argon == manual installation

To create a fully encrypted system using luks2 and argon - you will need to do it from scratch and resort to use limine, systemd-boot or a UKI (unified kernel image) efi-stub.

Manjaro has chosen GRUB as bootloader and I don’t see this change in the near future.

If you are not afraid of the terminal it is easy to do by hand.

I have been playing a lot with encrypted installs - I also created a topic which also involves verifying the loader using TPM and Secure Boot.

Feel free to abuse my notes and the script if so inclinded

Our friends at EndeavourOS has implemented luks2 + argon + systemd-boot in the installer.
