Changes to entries config don't persist after update

Open circlenaut opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

After mounting my ESP partition and editing ESP/loader/entries/Solus-*.conf to change rd.luks.uuid=yyy to rd.luks.name=yyy=SolusCrypto and running clr-boot-manager update the entries revert back to rd.luks.uuid.

Running clor-boot-manager list-kernels also throws the following: [FATAL] cbm (../src/bootloaders/systemd-class.c:L507): sd_class_get_default_kernel Unable to parse loader config com.solus-project.lts.4.9.186-134 com.solus-project.current.5.2.2-122

Might this be related to this?

I'm running version 3.1.0. Has the commit posted by Girtablulu been pushed? Is there a newer version out?

Well currently this is how clr-boot-manger is programed, it will write the entry *.conf whit the UUID from the encrypted partition, and it wont add any new label.

That is a new enhancement for clr-boot-manger, to label the encrypted partition with a configuration file, but

What is the use case to label the UUID?

I suppose adding your kernel args to /etc/kernel/cmdline should be enough. Please let me know if it doesn't fix or issue (I'm not sure if the version Solus is running would have the feature though). Thanks.
