Thinkpad P53

My personal setup for the Thinkpad P53

Hardware

  • CPU: Intel® Core™ i9-9980H Processor
  • GPU: NVIDIA Quadro RTX 4000
  • RAM: 2x 16GB Samsung DDR4-2666 (M471A2K43DB1-CTD) + 2x Micron 32GB DDR4-3200 (MTA16ATF4G64HZ-3G2E2)
  • Drive 0: Micron 3500 1TB (MTFDKBA1T0TGD-1BK1AABYYR)
  • Drive 1: Micron 3500 1TB (MTFDKBA1T0TGD-1BK1AABYYR)
  • Drive 2: Micron 3500 1TB (MTFDKBA1T0TGD-1BK1AABYYR)

Notes:

As of this writing, the Micron 2500, 2650, and 3500 are the only client SSDs advertising firmware verification. I am not sure how secure the implementation is, but I guess it is better than nothing.

There are other enterprise SSDs from Micron with firmware verification, but I am not using them here due to heat and power constraints.

Unlike the likes of WD and Samsung who make life extremely difficult unless you buy an OEM drive, Micron provides firmware updates on their website and also includes an update utility for Linux. There is no need to look for the Dell or Lenovo version of a drive to get updates via LVFS.

Legacy boot workaround

Check this issue.

This is the /etc/grub.d/42_custom file I use for Qubes 4.2.3:

#!/usr/bin/sh
exec tail -n +3 $0
# This file provides an easy way to add custom menu entries.  Simply type the
# menu entries you want to add after this comment.  Be careful not to change
# the 'exec tail' line above.

Partitioning

Drive 0 stores the host OS and less important VMs. Drive 1 and 2 run in btrfs RAID 1 and store VMs where redundancy is required. All drives will be encrypted with LUKS, and BTRFS checksum with Blake2b will provide integrity checking.

Open the shell with Control + Alt + F2 to get to the tty.

Do ls /dev/disk/by-id to check the serial numbers and find the correct drive. Anaconda, for whatever reason, may have different drive numbering than your firmware.

fdisk /dev/nvme0n1
d [Delete all the partition]
n
p
[Enter]
[Enter]
+1G

mkfs.btrfs --csum blake2b -L qubes_dom0 /dev/mapper/cryptroot
mount /dev/mapper/cryptroot /mnt
btrfs subvol create /mnt/root
cryptsetup close /dev/mapper/cryptroot

Use Control + Alt + F6 to get back to Anaconda.

Install destination -> Choose the drive -> Advanced Custom (Blivet-GUI) -> Hit refresh at the bottom right -> Rescan Disks -> Done

Format the first partition as ext4, mountpoint /boot Unlock the second partition Btrfs subvolumes -> create new -> name root, mountpoint /

Finish the rest of the installation as normal.
