Hello! Seeking some help/suggestions to solve a problem preventing
my system to boot up, which was working properly up to guix 9b84b36
(21 mar 2024) (note: I confess that my system is not totally pure).
Starting with guix d5f857a (22 mar 2024) up to my latest guix pull
with 1415ea7, the **system hangs during boot**, and it does before
anything is written to /var/log/messages. So, using a video capture
of the screen at boot, I was abble to catch :
#+begin_src boot
shepherd[1]: Exception caught while while starting device-mapping-luks-homes:
(unbound-variable #f "Unbound variable: "S" (bytevector?) #f)
#+end_src
… which appears to be the culprit ?!
follows a long list of "shepherd[1]: Service XXX depends on YYY" and
then
#+begin_src boot
shepherd[1]: The following services could not be started in the background:
<follows the list of all services the system should start>
#+end_src
>From there : a blinking cursor and the only way out I found is
CTRL-ALT-DEL, which triggers shepherd to stop some services. After
that I have to shutdown using hardware button.
My system and its config.scm have not changed and I see nothing
relevant, related to LUKS/dm-crypt, in `guix pull -l`.
My LUKS is configured like so :
(mapped-devices
(list
(mapped-device
(source (uuid "<the uuid>"))
(target "luks-homes")
(type luks-device-mapping))))
(file-systems
(append
(list
[…]
(file-system (mount-point "/home")
(device (file-system-label "luks-homes"))
(type "ext4")
(dependencies mapped-devices))
[…]
Any help would be appreciated.
