Dear Benjamin,

I found that the grub contained the following flag, `newc:etc/luks_script:(proc)/luks_script' inside my menu:

'''
menuentry "GNU with Linux-Libre 7.0.14" {
  search --label --set root
linux /gnu/store/6zmcz29g7fynf7d2f6i2k04w3lx93h5a-linux-libre-7.0.14/bzImage root=root gnu.system=/gnu/store/4zn3wsk8y3yj5gpkkr4648ma526aw1lh-system gnu.load=/gnu/store/4zn3wsk8y3yj5gpkkr4648ma526aw1lh-system/boot modprobe.blacklist=usbmouse,usbkbd quiet initrd newc:etc/luks_script:(proc)/luks_script /gnu/store/3b7arlamr55nyapvb4g6w3dba0083snx-raw-initrd/initrd.cpio.gz
}
'''

Removing it permitted me to proceed unencumbered.

Im CC'ind Ludo, given his involvement with an issue concerning luks_script.
Im worried that there may be a bug affecting users of Coreboot.

Also, note that my config contained `etc/' instead of `/etc/'.


In any case, its worth mentioning chroots functionality incase you need to tweak your system configuration:

Kind regards,

Hi Guix!

I've run into a very irritating problem on my one machine Guix machine (a nicely "blob-free" set-up I put together so it can run pure Guix without problem. And has a great screen (now, again) and keyboard and so would like to be using it!

I can confirm success running a (contemporary) Guix build with Coreboot using these (archived) instructions:

Clement Lassieur (CC'd) was credited with information on this procedure.
Perhaps he has further information?

Kind regards,
