Collection of notes of what eventually worked for me as I attempted this. Many guides and references used but most of them were not using LUKS + btrfs + multiboot, so I had to guess and check a bit.
Various tips and notes in this section for making this process easier and faster.

Go to OpenWRT release page, select the latest release stable release, then targets -> x86 -> 64. Right-click generic-ext4-combined.img.gz (not the "efi"!) and copy the link.
On the Proxmox host, download the archive and unpack it:
wget *paste link here*
gunzip openwrt-*.img.gz
| ## So you want to use stuff like 'tmux' and 'lolcat' on the Steam Deck, but they haven't been included in the base OS? | |
| # One way to do it is this. | |
| # 1. setup a chroot environment so there is a file structure in which Pacman can download/unpack packages and their dependencies. | |
| # 2. don't use it as a chroot environment; rather, add the various /bin directories inside it to your $PATH, and create an /etc/ld.so.conf.d/deck-local-arch.conf to permit the bins to find the libs they need. | |
| mkdir -p ~/.local/packer | |
| cd ~/.local | |
| #these steps are required, or else the pacstrap will fail with 'marginal trust' errors | |
| pacman -Sy archlinux-keyring | |
| pacman-key --populate archlinux |

| This demonstrates a task scheduling loop where tasks can send back other tasks to the queue. | |
| Program input: a nested list of items that can either be integers, or nested slices: | |
| - when it's an integer, wait for 25 - value seconds | |
| - when it's a slice, wait for len(slice) seconds, then put back each item in the queue to be processed next | |
| waiting time simulates some processing, on which a concurrency limit is applied ( both waiting times share the same | |
| limit ). pushing back to the queue should not be blocking. |
These instructions are based on this blogpost by Anton Semjonov and this video by Animortis Productions. Please follow the link if you want more details, they go into much more detail about each step, whereas this document is more focused on being a concise cheat sheet. Let's go.
Boot the Ubuntu installation medium. When asked, choose the "Try Ubuntu" option and open a terminal.
Switch to root, otherwise you'll have to type sudo all the time:
sudo su -
| # Install Docker first | |
| pacman -S docker | |
| # Create subvolume for Docker images | |
| cd /mnt/t20root | |
| btrfs subvolume create svols/docker | |
| # Create subvolume 'svols/docker' | |
| btrfs subvolume list . | |
| # ID 256 gen 1349 top level 5 path svols/root |
