# How to create encrypted paper backup
|
||
|
||
## Requirements
|
||
|
||
- [Hardened Raspberry Pi](../how-to-configure-hardened-raspberry-pi) 📦
|
||
- Raspberry Pi OS-compatible auto-focus HD USB webcam
|
||
- [Adafruit PiTFT monitor](https://www.adafruit.com/product/2423) (optional)
|
||
- macOS computer
|
||
|
||
## Caveats
|
||
|
||
- When copy/pasting commands that start with `$`, strip out `$` as this character is not part of the command
|
||
- When copy/pasting commands that start with `cat << "EOF"`, select all lines at once (from `cat << "EOF"` to `EOF` inclusively) as they are part of the same (single) command
|
||
|
||
## Setup guide
|
||
|
||
### Step 1: log in to Raspberry Pi
|
||
|
||
Replace `10.0.1.248` with IP of Raspberry Pi.
|
||
|
||
When asked for passphrase, enter passphrase from [step 1](#step-1-create-ssh-key-pair-on-computer).
|
||
|
||
```shell
|
||
ssh pi@10.0.1.248 -i ~/.ssh/pi
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Step 2 (optional): install [Adafruit PiTFT monitor](https://www.adafruit.com/product/2423) drivers and disable console auto login
|
||
|
||
#### Install [Adafruit PiTFT monitor](https://www.adafruit.com/product/2423) drivers
|
||
|
||
> Heads-up: don’t worry about `PITFT Failed to disable unit: Unit file fbcp.service does not exist.`.
|
||
|
||
> Heads-up: when asked to reboot, type `n` and press enter.
|
||
|
||
```console
|
||
$ sudo apt update
|
||
|
||
$ sudo apt install -y git python3-pip
|
||
|
||
$ sudo pip3 install --upgrade adafruit-python-shell click==7.0
|
||
|
||
$ git clone https://github.com/adafruit/Raspberry-Pi-Installer-Scripts.git
|
||
|
||
$ cd Raspberry-Pi-Installer-Scripts
|
||
|
||
$ sudo python3 adafruit-pitft.py --display=28c --rotation=90 --install-type=console
|
||
|
||
$ cd ~
|
||
|
||
$ rm -fr Raspberry-Pi-Installer-Scripts
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
#### Disable console auto login
|
||
|
||
> Heads-up: when asked to reboot, select “No” and press enter.
|
||
|
||
```shell
|
||
sudo raspi-config
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Select “System Options”, then “Boot / Auto Login”, then “Console” and finally “Finish”.
|
||
|
||
### Step 3: configure keyboard keymap
|
||
|
||
> Heads-up: following instructions are for [Raspberry Pi keyboard](https://www.raspberrypi.org/products/raspberry-pi-keyboard-and-hub/) (US model).
|
||
|
||
> Heads-up: when asked to reboot, select “No” and press enter.
|
||
|
||
```shell
|
||
sudo raspi-config
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Select “Localisation Options”, then “Keyboard”, then “Generic 105-key PC (intl.)”, then “Other”, then “English (US)”, then “English (US)”, then “The default for the keyboard layout”, then “No compose key” and finally “Finish”.
|
||
|
||
### Step 4: install dependencies
|
||
|
||
```console
|
||
$ sudo apt update
|
||
|
||
$ sudo apt install -y fim imagemagick zbar-tools
|
||
|
||
$ pip3 install pillow qrcode --user
|
||
|
||
$ echo -e "export GPG_TTY=\"\$(tty)\"\nexport PATH=\$PATH:/home/pi/.local/bin" >> ~/.bashrc
|
||
|
||
$ source ~/.bashrc
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Step 5: download [bip39.txt](./bip39.txt) ([PGP signature](./bip39.txt.sig), [PGP public key](https://sunknudsen.com/sunknudsen.asc))
|
||
|
||
```shell

||
sudo curl -o /usr/local/sbin/bip39.txt https://sunknudsen.com/static/media/privacy-guides/how-to-create-encrypted-paper-backup/bip39.txt
|
||
```
|
||
|

### Step 6: download [qr-backup.sh](./qr-backup.sh) ([PGP signature](./qr-backup.sh.sig), [PGP public key](https://sunknudsen.com/sunknudsen.asc))
|
||
|
||
```shell
|
||
sudo curl -o /usr/local/sbin/qr-backup.sh https://sunknudsen.com/static/media/privacy-guides/how-to-create-encrypted-paper-backup/qr-backup.sh
|
||
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/sbin/qr-backup.sh
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Step 7: download [qr-restore.sh](./qr-restore.sh) ([PGP signature](./qr-restore.sh.sig), [PGP public key](https://sunknudsen.com/sunknudsen.asc))

|
||
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/sbin/qr-restore.sh
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Step 8: download [qr-clone.sh](./qr-clone.sh) ([PGP signature](./qr-clone.sh.sig), [PGP public key](https://sunknudsen.com/sunknudsen.asc))
|
||
|
||
```shell

|
||
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/sbin/secure-erase.sh
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Step 10: make filesystem read-only
|
||
|
||
> Heads-up: shout-out to Nico Kaiser for his amazing [guide](https://gist.github.com/nicokaiser/08aa5b7b3958f171cf61549b70e8a34b) on how to configure a read-only Raspberry Pi.
|
||
|
||
#### Disable swap
|
||
|
||
```shell
|
||
sudo dphys-swapfile swapoff
|
||
sudo dphys-swapfile uninstall
|
||
sudo systemctl disable dphys-swapfile.service
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
#### Remove `dphys-swapfile` `fake-hwclock` and `logrotate`
|
||
|
||
```shell
|
||
sudo apt remove -y --purge dphys-swapfile fake-hwclock logrotate
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
#### Link `/etc/console-setup` to `/tmp/console-setup`
|
||
|
||
```shell
|
||
sudo mv /etc/console-setup /tmp/console-setup
|
||
sudo ln -s /tmp/console-setup /etc/console-setup
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
#### Link `/etc/resolv.conf` to `/tmp/resolv.conf`
|
||
|
||
```shell
|
||
sudo mv /etc/resolv.conf /tmp/resolv.conf
|
||
sudo ln -s /tmp/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
#### Link `/home/pi/.gnupg` to `/tmp/pi/.gnupg`
|
||
|
||
```shell
|
||
mkdir -m 700 /tmp/pi
|
||
mv /home/pi/.gnupg /tmp/pi/.gnupg
|
||
ln -s /tmp/pi/.gnupg /home/pi/.gnupg
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
#### Enable `tmp.mount`
|
||
|
||
```shell
|
||
echo -e "D /tmp 1777 root root -\nD /tmp/console-setup 1700 root root -\nD /tmp/pi 1700 pi pi -\nD /tmp/pi/.gnupg 1700 pi pi -\nD /var/tmp 1777 root root -" | sudo tee /etc/tmpfiles.d/tmp.conf
|
||
sudo cp /usr/share/systemd/tmp.mount /etc/systemd/system/
|
||
sudo systemctl enable tmp.mount
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
#### Edit `/boot/cmdline.txt`
|
||
|
||
```shell
|
||
sudo cp /boot/cmdline.txt /boot/cmdline.txt.backup
|
||
sudo sed -i 's/fsck.repair=yes/fsck.repair=skip/' /boot/cmdline.txt
|
||
sudo sed -i '$ s/$/ noswap ro systemd.volatile=state/' /boot/cmdline.txt
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
#### Edit `/etc/fstab`
|
||
|
||
```shell
|
||
sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.backup
|
||
sudo sed -i -e 's/vfat\s*defaults\s/vfat defaults,ro/' /etc/fstab
|
||
sudo sed -i -e 's/ext4\s*defaults,noatime\s/ext4 defaults,noatime,ro,noload/' /etc/fstab
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
#### Disable `/boot` macOS `fseventsd` logging and Spotlight indexing
|
||
|
||
```shell
|
||
sudo touch /boot/.metadata_never_index
|
||
sudo mkdir -p /boot/.fseventsd
|
||
sudo touch /boot/.fseventsd/no_log
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Step 11: disable Wi-Fi (if not using ethernet) or disconnect ethernet cable
|
||
|
||
```shell
|
||
echo "dtoverlay=disable-wifi" | sudo tee -a /boot/config.txt
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Step 12: reboot
|
||
|
||
```shell
|
||
sudo systemctl reboot
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
> WARNING: DO NOT CONNECT RASPBERRY PI TO NETWORK EVER AGAIN WITHOUT REINSTALLING RASPBERRY PI OS FIRST (DEVICE IS NOW "READ-ONLY" AND “COLD”).
|
||
|
||
### Step 13 (optional): compute SHA512 hash of SD card and store in password manager (on macOS)
|
||
|
||
Run `diskutil list` to find disk ID of SD card with “Raspberry Pi OS Lite” installed (`disk2` in the following example).
|
||
|
||
```console
|
||
$ diskutil list
|
||
/dev/disk0 (internal, physical):
|
||
#: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER
|
||
0: GUID_partition_scheme *500.3 GB disk0
|
||
1: EFI EFI 209.7 MB disk0s1
|
||
2: Apple_APFS Container disk1 500.1 GB disk0s2
|
||
|
||
/dev/disk1 (synthesized):
|
||
#: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER
|
||
0: APFS Container Scheme - +500.1 GB disk1
|
||
Physical Store disk0s2
|
||
1: APFS Volume Macintosh HD - Data 340.9 GB disk1s1
|
||
2: APFS Volume Preboot 85.9 MB disk1s2
|
||
3: APFS Volume Recovery 529.0 MB disk1s3
|
||
4: APFS Volume VM 3.2 GB disk1s4
|
||
5: APFS Volume Macintosh HD 11.3 GB disk1s5
|
||
|
||
/dev/disk2 (internal, physical):
|
||
#: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER
|
||
0: FDisk_partition_scheme *15.9 GB disk2
|
||
1: Windows_FAT_32 boot 268.4 MB disk2s1
|
||
2: Linux 15.7 GB disk2s2
|
||
|
||
$ sudo diskutil unmountDisk /dev/diskn (if previous step fails)
|
||
Unmount of all volumes on disk2 was successful
|
||
|
||
$ sudo openssl dgst -sha512 /dev/rdisk2
|
||
SHA512(/dev/rdisk3)= 353af7e9bd78d7d98875f0e2a58da3d7cdfc494f2ab5474b2ab4a8fd212ac6a37c996d54f6c650838adb61e4b30801bcf1150081f6dbb51998cf33a74fa7f0fe
|
||
```
