At this point, you can start Finder, hit Command+K and put in the server URL copied from the output above, along with a static `linsk` username and a randomly-generated password. If you need help, you can find more information on this here: https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/mchlp1140/mac.

## Use LVM
Linsk supports LVM2. You can mount LVM2 drives by specifying `mapper/<device name>` as the VM device name. Let's assume that you want to mount `vghdd-media` with XFS filesystem you found in the `linsk ls` output above. To do so, you may run:
```
```sh
sudo linsk run dev:/dev/diskX mapper/vghdd-media xfs
```
## Use LUKS with `cryptsetup`
As well as with LVM2, LUKS via `cryptsetup` is natively supported by Linsk. To mount LUKS volumes, you may specify the `-l` flag in `linsk run` command. Let's assume that we want to access LUKS-encrypted volume `vghdd-archive` we found in the `linsk ls` example provided in step 2. To mount it, you may execute:
```
```sh
sudo linsk run -l dev:/dev/diskX mapper/vghdd-archive ext4
```

This example showed how you can use LUKS with LVM2 volumes, but that doesn't mean that you can't use volumes without LVM. You can specify plain device paths like `/dev/vdb3` without any issue.
