Veracrypt with or without Distrobox
I'm new to Bazzite and Linux in general so my questions might be a bit dumb/basic 😉 Sorry.
I want to create an encrypted USB drive using Veracrypt (as it should be shared between different devices including Windows and since I worked with it in the past). After I couldn't get it to work otherwise I used Distrobox and an Ubuntu Container to install/export it. The program is running and I can see the stick under /dev/sdd1, but I can't do anything with it. From my limited understanding I believe that the Box i created can't access devices from the main system. Is that correct and how can give the box access to that stick. Alternatively: is there another way to get Veracrypt to work?
