Encrypted install error: "info: task systemd-udevd blocked for more than 120 seconds"
Hello,
I am trying to install Arch encrypted. The issue is that I get these errors when I start "grub-mkconfig" at the end of archfi. Sometimes it pops through the gui, too. grub-mkconfig wont end with this errors. I had not any issue when I installed Arch with archfi unencrypted.
This are the errors:
INFO: task systemd-udevd:1336 blocked for more than 120 seconds
INFO: task dmraid:28558 blocked for more than 120 seconds
What I have done before I go into archfi: (partitioning with cfdisk)
cryptsetup -v -y --cipher aes-xts-plain64 --key-size 512 --hash sha512 --iter-time 5000 --use-random --verify-passphrase luksFormat /dev/nvme0n1p2
cryptsetup open /dev/nvme0n1p2 cryptlvm
pvcreate /dev/mapper/cryptlvm vgcreate vg /dev/mapper/cryptlvm
lvcreate -L 8G vg -n swap lvcreate -L 32G vg -n root lvcreate -l 100%FREE vg -n home
mkfs.ext4 /dev/vg/root mkfs.ext4 /dev/vg/home mkswap /dev/vg/swap
mount /dev/vg/root /mnt mkdir /mnt/home mount /dev/vg/home /mnt/home swapon /dev/vg/swap
mkfs.fat -F32 /dev/nvme0n1p1 mkdir /mnt/efi mount /dev/nvme0n1p2 /mnt/efi
Not so easy config...
Are you using the last media of Arch Linux? Do you have the same issue when you make a manual install without archfi?
With your config you need to edit some files(mkinitcpio.conf, crypttab) and pacstrap lvm2 manualy... But the error is very strange...
INFO: task systemd-udevd:1336 blocked for more than 120 seconds INFO: task dmraid:28558 blocked for more than 120 seconds
dmraid ???
I have done it manually now. I didnt know that I need to edit some files (grub, mkinitcpio.conf for example). I think that was the issue.
Here are some nice tutorials for this: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/dm-crypt/Encrypting_an_entire_system#LUKS_on_LVM https://gist.github.com/huntrar/e42aee630bee3295b2c671d098c81268 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ybvwikNlx9I
I have tried it again installing it with archfi. Now I get the first error message even at the beginning, when I try to install the kernel.
When you use archfi, all cmd are printed... Try to find when you encouter an error. Looking here, it seem you need to edit some files : https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dm-crypt/System_configuration
