-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Just finished installing Stretch, using a RAID1, LVM and encryotion for home (passkey) and . It is ant the moment a basic installation with X-server-Xorg, but no DE yet. As part of the boot it accepts my /home password, but I do not get the command line. I end up with a blue-grey screen. No input from mouse or keyboard is accepted. To close the computer I have to use the power switch.
I can open it in recovery mode, and after I enter the root password I can get the command line as root. But I don't know what to do next to effect a rescue. From the root command line I can however close the computer properly with "shutdown -h now". I did notice when the computer was booting normally -- not in rescue mode -- the following lines loop many times until the computer gives up: Running /scripts/local-block Failed to connect to lvmetad Failed to find logical volume SOL1/swap_crypt According to several posts on line, this behaviour is a nuisance but not fatal. As some people suggested on line I tried to get rid of this nuisance by changing in /etc/lvm/lvm.conf use_lvmetad=1 to =0, but to no effect. If I have to I can live with the nuisance, but I cannot live without the command line. Help please, anyone.
