I am curious too about that actually... if anyone gets an update on how to
fix this let me know. ;)
I am not sure if this is an appropriate comment, but:
As I wrote above, Leah advised me to add the symlink for vmlinuz myself (by
the above mentioned commands). So I booted from a live-usb, mounted the
encrypted partition and found, that the vmlinuz symlink to the vmlinuz file
in /boot/ is
something interesting I found out, this bug I had when I tried to install
Full Disk Encryption, it also does the same thing with debian install. weird
yes?
I don't know how seabios works, but if it makes it easier, I am for it.
this will never work
the people here who have done an extremely custom config and os install are
either going to know how it works or not be able to get it to work and then
keep trying

libreboot should use seabios, it is far more flexible and compatible, and

Just happened to update Libreboot on my x200, following the
instructions at https://libreboot.org . Things are OK now, but I
experienced an issue, which I'll report here.
I chose to have a fully encrypted disk, and that's OK. But
then I chose to add a GRUB password, and that'

2) Get the MAC adress of the laptop, most likely on a sticker at the
bottom of the laptop. Get the ROM image you need. For this, you need

I will try it again another time, but I hope a solution can be found and then
a guide specifically for troubleshooting Full Disk Encryption is put on the
website...
Thanks, that's what I thought, I just had to be sure.
I'll look into your other comments later, when I have some time.

I believe this is the linky (add child page)

I don't have the problem, but out of curiosity:
I think either vmlinuz is really missing, or GRUB links to it the wrong way.
vmlinuz is supposed to be in the /boot folder as far as I know
(https://superuser.com/questions/62575/where-is-vmlinux-on-my-ubuntu-installation),
so that would be the
I don't mind, I feel stupid myself regarding that stuff. But the fact is,
with the guides I gave you, I managed to chroot into my drive. And that's
knowing all too well how irritating this stuff is.
Also, no one can help if you're not more precise with your error messages:

He didn't, he can't boot manually (cryptomount -a etc.). Specifically because
of that vmlinuz thing.
To me this is not a Libreboot issue, but a problem with the way Trisquel was
install (I didn't have that issue, personally).
CalmStorm: Did you ever access Trisquel after installation?
CalmStorm, I have the same issue: After installing Trisquel on libreboot and
trying to boot I get stopped by the "error: file `/vmlinuz' not found"
message.
And I've found no way of solving it yet.
I have an 'appointment' with Leah Rowe, that she will guide me to a solution
via #libreboot
well oddly enough only two different partitions will turn on.
That's just a guess, but maybe try to go in the /media folder and create a
/usr folder, then try again (you'll most likely need to be as root user to do
so).
I don't know if it's supposed to be there by default or not, I can't remember
exactly how it went for me.
and yes it is an error at chrooting...
thats the step i got to before having issues and zapper is my volume name.
Is it an error while chrooting?
What is /dev/zapper?
At which step are you exactly?
Trying to mount the partitions, as in this?
mkdir /media/linux
mount /dev/main/root /media/linux
mount /dev/main/usr /media/linux/usr
mount -o bind /proc /media/linux/proc
mount -o bind /dev /media/linux/dev
mount
hmm ran into an error, /dev/zapper/usr /media/linux/usr
/media/linux/usr didn't work.
It's rather straightforward once you get a bit used to the CLI.
Semi-pro tip: don't type the ROM's name every time, just type the first 2
characters, and press TAB. It will be witten for you.
I just have written an answer that the forum refused to let me publish

If you find it let me know, hopefully it has full instructions.
my apologies as this is tough to figure out for me heh.
yes
I have no idea if it would work with a cdrom, but I guess it should work. I'm
looking for a chrooting tutorial I've posted somwhere in the forum.
Modify CBFS? You mean extracting grutest.cfg, modifying it and adding it
again to the ROM?
Wait, I just remembered something: it's possible to access the HDD from a
liveUSB. I can't remember how the procedure is called, but I know I've
detailed it in this forum (and did it obviously). Oh right, it('s called
chrooting, and it might be easier to troubleshoot while being logged.
how would I do that in libreboot though?
should i tell you what ls does in the grub part of the computer?
also I installed trisquel but I couldn't log into the installation due to
these errors even with what I said I knew.
Maybe try this then:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/150691/missing-vmlinuz-from-boot
error: file `/vmlinuz' not found.
Good, then when booting manually, you get an error about vmlinuz, right? What
does it say exactly.
I flashed it myself and I installed trisquel myself...
I know what my logical volume is named.
essentially I know all of what you ask and still I cannot get in.
Then you need to start from here.
Did you flash Libreboot yourself?
Did you install Trisquel yourself?
You need to know how the volume group and the logical volume were named
(either by you or the person who installed Trisquel), as well as the
passphrase that allows you to decrypt the HDD.
oh well in that case, no it didn't work.
but, yes I have the latest libreboot and trisquel installed. and yes I am
trying to update it.
I mean by turning the computer on, failing to log in, then getting back to
the GRUB menu, pressing "c".
From there, you type :
cryptomount -a (press "enter")
set root='/lvm/yourvolumegroup-yourlogicalvolume' (press "enter")
linux /vmlinuz root=/dev/mapper/yourvolumegroup-yourlogicalvolume
cryp
when I switched to grubtest I don't remember seeing any errors...
so what needs to be done i guess?
Thanks.
Sure, why not. But how do I create a new entry?
I can edit existing articles, but that's it.
I can check...
I cannot log into my trisquel installation if that is what you mean...
what do you mean by log manually? though///
Can you log manually?
If so, do you have the vmlinuz error there as well?
I hope this guide works, gonna try it now. let you know if it works.. :)
