Hi Ludo' and others, I recently updated my systems after finally finding https://issues.guix.gnu.org/70051 and seeing the issue I was having with booting with a non-root LUKS partition configured had been fixed. After updating to a commit past these two:
49f82fca41 mapped-devices: luks: Specify modules needed at the top-level. 6062339156 mapped-devices: <mapped-device-type> can specify modules to import. I am now seeing a different error, which I am pretty sure is related to the module import changes in 49f82fca41. The error I get is about an unknown symbol "system*/tty" when the initramfs tries to prompt for a password to unlock the LUKS partition containing the root filesystem. I don't know how the module plumbing of Shepherd and the generated initramfs work, but I suspect the fix for Shepherd opening LUKS partition broke the import of system*/tty in the initramfs (for example, at the early REPL that booting my latest system generation ends up at, system*/tty is undefined initially, but after evaluating "(use-modules (gnu build file-systems))" system*/tty resolves to a procedure as exected--so the module is at least present in the initramfs). I have encountered this error with two different systems, and I believe the reproduction is simply trying to open a LUKS device without a keyfile so that a password prompt is necessary. Cheers, Kaelyn
