That is really strange. If I did install Debian 12, it offered me a list of different file systems, including ext2/3/4. > Despite that the partition in fact is getting formatted ext4, so the > entry ext2 in /etc/fstab leads into emergency mode. Does the installer format it as ext4, but shows ext2 and places that in fstab? Or do you format it manually? > I think the partitioning tool in installer should offer to format the > encrypted partition in ext4, as LUKS (?) does, instead of ext2 and > must write ext4 to /etc/fstab, as this is, how it ends up. LUKS is only a container and doesn't care about the file system inside. After opening it, it is a file under /dev/mapper that can be formatted like /dev/sdXY.
