security. 2) Actually, I have a very good GPG
encryption for a single file with GPG prompt outside of
Windows. I just prove to myself that I can do it.

It is Grub -> Dracut -> decrupt, mount -> Root.

"plymouth quit" - that is how to get access to Dracut
rd.shell.

I know three ways to boot kernel:
- kexec and chroot from installCD
- Legacy BIOS - MBR record
- UEFI - EFI stub, makes installation even more harder.

Why so much effor? 1) Because this is Ring 0 level of #dailyreport #secureboot #encyption #dracut #linux #boot #gentoo #grub #dmcrypt #luks

#gentoo #grub #dmcrypt #luks
I installed Gentoo GNU/Linux with full encypted root with
deattached LUKS2 header by GPG encrypted key file at
USB. :-) If you don't understand - it is perfect.

I almost gave up, but suddenly found complete guide from
"Screenager" with hack to Dracut. #gentoo #grub #dmcrypt #luks #dailyreport #secureboot #encyption #dracut #linux #boot #gentoo #grub #dmcrypt #luks

- dmesg > dmesg_installcd
- cp /proc/config.gz livecd-config.gz
- zgrep CONFIG_ livecd-config.gz
- lscpu

My principles:
- Don't connect machines to each other, first steps
should be most careful.
- Don't put hard disk with different OS at the same time
in a single machine. #dailyreport #gentoo #linux #administration #security #encryption #privacy #luks #dracut #linuxkernel #linuxboot #grub

partition with deattached header. Partition looks like
not formatted, totally hidden.

Here is the first steps that you should do before
configuring Linux kernel for custom build:
- install usbutils pciutils
- lspci -k > lspci_installcd
- lsusb > lsusb_installcd
- lsmod > lsmod_installcd #dailyreport #gentoo #linux #administration #security #encryption #privacy #luks #dracut #linuxkernel #linuxboot #grub

I use USB stick with encrypted password and boot
partition that unlock main SSD partition and boot. I use
BTRFS filesystem with submodules on LUKS2 encrypted #encryption #privacy #luks #dracut #linuxkernel #linuxboot #grub #dailyreport #gentoo #linux #administration #security #encryption #privacy #luks #dracut #linuxkernel #linuxboot #grub

In actuality, typing my #LUKS phrase is probably the single least efficient part of the #boot...

Unification de l'installeur : Le projet va désormais utiliser l'installeur de #LMDE (le "live-installer") pour toutes ses versions, remplaçant ainsi #Ubiquity. Ce changement permet de mieux supporter l' #OEM, le #SecureBoot et #LVM / #LUKS.

Arrivée de "Alfa" (Mint 23) : Une version de développement nommée provisoirement "Alfa" est déjà sur les rails.
