Nitropad will need to provide you an upgrade path that supports Cryptsetup2
in order to move to QubesOs 4.1

Alternatively, you could flash a current version of the X230 heads firmware
(which uses 4.13 and cryptsetup2) by building this yourself from source, or
grabbing a prebuilt bin from the Heads CircleCI
https://app.circleci.com/pipelines/github/osresearch/heads - the hardware
is still an X230.

However you need to consider if Nitropad would support your product were
you to do this.

[qubes-users] Nitropad X230 with Qubes 4.1

2022-01-19 Thread 'taran1s' via qubes-users
Hello everyone, I am using the Nitropad X230 with the latest 4.0 Qubes 
installed.


In the conversation with Thierry Laurion here 
https://groups.google.com/g/qubes-users/c/KsY46D55UQM/m/F3cQ-89KBQAJ it 
seemed that at that time the Nitropad X230 was not ready to transit to 
Qubes 4.1.


This part of the conversation actually: Heads will need to be reflashed 
with a ROM supporting cryptsetup2 to reinstall. Heada will also need to 
be based on coreboot 4.13+ as per pending Heads pull request 1015.


Consider this as a beta testing ROM.

Is the situation different now with rc4, or is it advisable to wait till 
the transition will be ready?


Thank you!
