Video Notes/Corrections:
- As described at 9:56, nvme devices are sorted differently and have three parameters as oppose to VDa or SDA block devices. You can learn more about them here: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/linux-on-systems?topic=servers-non-volatile-memory-express-nvme
And you can learn more about their namespaces here: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/linux-on-systems?topic=nvme-namespaces

- Just to note, at 22:37 there was a problem with my install disk, I just got a new one. This is unlikely to happen to you!

- When pacstrapping at 26:33, you should add man-db and man-pages to the list of applications to install as these will give you the required manuals to read up on when you need to learn certain command line tools.

- At 48:56 I said "-d" option is for device. That is incorrect, the -d paramter is used to input the file path to your key file for decryption. Read more at https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man8/cryptsetup-luksformat.8.html
