That's the "worst of both worlds" solution. It means that the boot loader thas to understand and fully access the the root volume, which means that the boot loader must have code to read the file system. When encryption is used, the boot loader must implement this too. This is all very constraining and fragile. And there's really no need for that. If we're creating the ESP, just make it large enough. If we can't grow the ESP and it's tiny, then just create a large-enough XBOOTLDR… Zbyszek -- _______________________________________________ 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
