Albretch, Perhaps the following document could be of some help. I had to use it to install Debian Stretch on a different laptop with EFI. So, in my case, one of the partitions is not encrypted. In that sense, the situation is somehow similar to your fat16 (/dev/sda1) partition. The document refers to Jessie, but I used it to install Stretch no problem. https://xo.tc/setting-up-full-disk-encryption-on-debian-jessie.html -- Nitebirdz
