Maybe such an issue also exists in the GRUB bug tracker; if so we can cross-reference them Maxim

I found https://issues.guix.gnu.org/39632 for the keyboard layout issue for the decryption passphrase in grub and also https://issues.guix.gnu.org/49435 which is making a suggestion about how to address it. I could not find any existing issue for being able to retype the decryption passphrase in grub without going to the grub rescue prompt. Should I send an email to bug-guix for that?

We could track this as two separated Guix bugs, if they haven't already been reported. I agree the user experience for decrypting the disks leaves much to be desired. Maxim

Thanks, I can confirm that it works if I am assuming US qwerty layout! Now, I need to find out how to change that, and also to make it so that I can retype the passphrase without going to a grub rescue prompt.

Encrypted install in VM stuck in GRUB
Hi all, I installed guix in an x86 virtual machine, using the 1.4 installer. I selected the guided partitioning option with encryption, so everything was done by the installer. When the installation is finished and the virtual machine reboots, I have -- copy start -- Booting from Hard Disk... GRUB loading.. Welcome to GRUB! Attempting to decypt master key... Enter passphrase for hd0,gpt2 () -- copy end -- Then I type the passphrase (I was very careful that the focus is in the vm screen and to not make any mistake, and I did the same twice) and I have -- copy start -- error: access denied. error: no such cryptodisk found. error: disk 'cryptoduuid/ not found Entering rescue mode... grub rescue> -- copy end -- I have setup the keyboard to use French azerty layout in the installer, then I was expecting my keyboard layout to be that one when typing the passphrase. If it is not so, then I typed a wrong password but in other distros, the message I got when typing a wrong password is pretty different, so maybe this is not the problem. Is the encrypted disk option working ok in the installer? Thanks, David.

The proper way to do this is to fetch the narinfo, and then get the URL from that, but generally you can take the filename in the store, and then add it on to https://bordeaux.guix.gnu.org/nar/lzip/ . For example: → guix build --no-grafts linux-libre /gnu/store/1xw4p9gnvmnvvifw07y588i9w92gw7yl-linux-libre-6.4.12 → wget https://bordeaux.guix.gnu.org/nar/lzip/1xw4p9gnvmnvvifw07y588i9w92gw7yl-linux-libre-6.4.12 --2023-09-14 10:03:11-- https://bordeaux.guix.gnu.org/nar/lzip/1xw4p9gnvmnvvifw07y588i9w92gw7yl-linux-libre-6.4.12 Resolving bordeaux.guix.gnu.org (bordeaux.guix.gnu.org)... 2a0c:e300::58, 185.233.100.56 Connecting to bordeaux.guix.gnu.org (bordeaux.guix.gnu.org)|2a0c:e300::58|:443... connected.

URLs of substitutes
Hello Is it possible to get a URL for a substitute, for example for the Linux kernel? I am trying to troubleshoot connection to a substitute sever with my tunnel broker, which is slow for this server for some reason and eventually times out when running `guix system reconfigure /etc/config.scm`. I considered showing wget output to the technical support as an example but do not know how to find the URL. Roman signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
