/etc/shutdown.allow needs to have your user's name in it for that user
to be able to shut the system down without using su or sudo.
/etc/shutdown.deny can have user names in it too, and those will not be
allowed to shut the system down.

Hi all,

Hi,
My problem is that I can't make a USB flash drive with a LUKS encrypted

Partitions in USB device:
