How to install Fedora alongside Windows (dual boot) with full disk encryption

You can basically follow my instructions in the guide about dual-booting Windows and Debian with full disk encryption only with some minor differences. Here are my notes for you and for my future-self.

  • I used Blivet GUI Partitioning and created an encrypted LVM volume group like I do in my guide. The steps are similar: 1. Create a free space, 2. Encrypt it, 3. Create a LVM volume group in it, 4. Create logical volumes in the volume group.
  • In addition to setting a /boot mount point for the boot partition with 500M disk space, I set the mount point of EFI partition of Windows as /boot/efi to solve the warning of Fedora installer: “fedora failed to find a suitable stage1 device efi system partition“. This way it worked perfectly.
