David Have done Ctrl+Alt+F1 procedure with the modification to ~/.profile A procedure that has solved the problem. I can now get the the installed Trisquel 11 System using my user name and password. Could Trisquel automate the process when one uses the Guix Package Management Tools. It has recently become very cumbersome to set up a Trisquel System for development work. My basic system involves having recent versions of GCC, Emacs, TexLive, and Python. In practical terms, after installing a new Trisquel System I always have to 1. Increase root partition size. 2. Install Guix Package Manager. 3. Install GCC, EMACS, TexLive, and Python; all via guix install. 4. Perform the changes to ~/.profile Installing Emacs and TexLive directly from the sources have recently become so labourious that the only solution for me is to use "guix install". GCC is currently manageable and usually get things done in a few hours without a guix install.

I have not tried, no. I got into a Trisquel 11 LIVE CD trying to accesss
the original system. But because of the LVM setup I got stuck from doing
the next steps.

If /dev/sda4 is ciphered, then sudo cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sd4 cryptlvm Then the volumes should be visible as /dev/mapper/vgtrisquel-root and /dev/mapper/vgtrisquel-home, you can mount them as needed. If the volumes don't show up at all, try sudo vgscan sudo vgchange -ay https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/LVM has good guidance on LVM. > -- David Lecompte ___ Trisquel-devel mailing list [email protected] https://listas.trisquel.info/mailman/listinfo/trisquel-devel

Did you try to log in from a terminal in text mode? (like Ctrl+Alt+F1).
If it works, the problem might be solved by the addition to your .profile
that is described on https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/gnu-guix-package-manager.
I copy it here but my email client is certainly breaking lines;
cat >> ~/.profile << EOF
export
XDG_DATA_DIRS="/usr/local/share:/usr/share/\${XDG_DATA_DIRS:+:}\$XDG_DATA_DI
RS"

[Trisquel-devel] Pasword entering phase repeating itself
Have been getting a recurring problem when starting Trisquel. I get asked for my password. But after I enter it correctly, Trisquel takes me back to the password entering phase all over again. And thus I cannot enter into my system at all. ___ Trisquel-devel mailing list [email protected] https://listas.trisquel.info/mailman/listinfo/trisquel-devel
