Re: Install Full disk encryption (including /boot ) Luks1 T440P Libreboot
Reminder: Please write guides as you like but not speaking on behalf of a whole community when you don't have asked the community, jim. You have made your point and demand clear. But you have send now several different points in different threads out, not being fully clear. Like this one: https://forums.hyperbola.info/viewtopic … 7577#p7577
If you want to offer a guidance with the software Hyperbola has? Fine. But just to make that clear: We won't add unapproved patches, also not rebuilding and updating packages just because someone said it "may work". Please do not use Hyperbola as your own platform for only your interests. Offer your tipps, your guide for sure. But not on behalf of Hyperbola like "we" as a whole community now ask for help. You ask for support and help. There is a clear difference!
Please orient on the roadmap Hyperbola has: https://wiki.hyperbola.info/doku.php?id … sd_roadmap
There is no Aargon2id and LUKS2. And before you bring in that we "need to include that": LUKS2 is also Linux-only. Simple answer: Sorry, but we do not focus on that. If you want to focus? Cool. Are there possible good working fixes without breaking the system? Okay, let's see. But as said: Roadmap is set for different parts. Hyperbola is community-oriented system, but exactly driven with system-development. That also means: You want something integrated in your installation? You need to find a way forward or test it on your own. You do not need to repeat the argumentation about "users" and your personal awaitings. That is all understood. But Hyperbola has a concrete roadmap and our goals are now:- Version 0.4.5, reduction of number packages and the sizing of the ISO (striping)
- HyperbolaBSDAnd this thread is even referenced on places for other systems and projects, keeping us busy for sure when people have questions and get in contact. When this debate is going further in that direction I have no other choice but to close this thread with underlining the reminder to create a new thread for "Aargon2id and LUKS2". The essential question stays here: Is full disk encryption possible or not? It was not the question: Is it possible with whatever newest Linux-only part people recommend. That was NOT the question and NOT part of this thread. If this is not possible to understand: It is not our task and also not mine to unravel mixed up topics like "What does Libreboot support" or "How is Canoeboot working" ... but those questions are now on the table elsewhere and mixing also within all of this. Keep it please clear and straight, not like asking everybody about whatever, this is causing only more work and binds time.
You also forgot to mention its likely that OpenBSD has a better way to do full disk encryption. IE, more secure, possibly more lightweight?
This is probably an important point for why not to put luks2 in the wiki. It rams home the fact that you likely have a better way.
