related https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/Apps_Issues/issues/162 - i think it would be a good feature to have if people opt in - it's by no means about convenience but to give us enough data to fix issues. It's also data that might be hard for the user to provide.

So I'm not sure what's happening here but it cannot boot because it can't find your disks. Usually /dev/mapper maps your disk UUIDs to the luks encryption and /etc/fstab holds the info on your boot disk. Those are unavailable for some reason on your system.

The wording has improved. Words such as GNU, Linux, Gnome, Plasma and distribution have been cleverly avoided, which is a good thing IMHO. A bit of redundancy is immediately obvious though. But overall it's going in the right direction. I'm pretty certain that 1 installer for both flavors is the right approach.
