We can also take a step back: if we do not encrypt /, * we can get rid of separate /boot partition at all. This could be just a directory on rootfs. We mount ESP in /boot/efi anyway. * We use GRUB by default. It has some basic support for LUKS2, so it may work on encrypted rootfs, too: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/GRUB#Encrypted_/boot I've used to run VMs without separate /boot when the resources were tight and every gigabyte counted. -- Tomasz Torcz Only gods can safely risk perfection, [email protected] it’s a dangerous thing for a man. — Alia -- _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/[email protected] Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
