Hello,

I followed this tutorial : https://wiki.parabola.nu/Installing_Parabola_on_Libreboot_with_full_disk_encryption_(including_/boot)

to install Parabola on my Thinkpad x200 with full disk encryption. I'm having issue with keyfile.

If booting linux-libre or linux-libre-lts with keyfile (to avoid typing password twice) :

linux /boot/vmlinuz-linux-libre root=/dev/matrix/rootvol cryptdevice=/dev/sda1:root:allow-discards cryptkey=rootfs:/etc/pass rw

-> The following error appears :

:: running hook [encrypt]
Waiting 10 seconds for device /dev/matrix/rootvol ...
ERROR: device '/dev/matrix/rootvol' not found. Skipping fsck.
:: mounting '/dev/matrix/rootvol' on real root
mount: you must specify the filesystem type
You are now being dropped into an emergency shell.
sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
[rootfs ]#

pass (the keyfile) is not present under /etc/

If booting without keyfile :

linux /boot/vmlinuz-linux-libre root=/dev/matrix/rootvol cryptdevice=/dev/sda1:root:allow-discards rw

I have to input my password twice but it boots fine.

I followed every steps :

pass added to luks
FILES="/etc/pass" in /etc/mkinitcpio.conf
initramfs creation with mkinitcpio -p linux-libre

Worth to mention that I had a working Parabola system a couple of months ago with the exact same setup and configuration.

Here is the full "boot" command in grub.cfg (inside CBFS in Libreboot rom) which worked fine the past months :

cryptomount -a
set root="lvm/matrix-rootvol"
linux /boot/vmlinuz-linux-libre root=/dev/matrix/rootvol cryptdevice=/dev/sda1:root:allow-discards cryptkey=rootfs:/etc/pass rw
initrd /boot/initramfs-linux-libre.img
boot
