Having an issue after I install garuda-dracut-support

It seems to timeout when trying to decrypt on startup leaving me unable to access my system.

This is what I get after entering my decrypt key 3 times. One time before grub, and twice during the prompt you see above. Not sure why it needs it 3 times.

I am a bit of a noob with this and I know just enough to do some damage which is bad :grin:

I have already attempted a couple things and have had to boot off snapshots which is how I am posting this now.

I don’t want to keep messing around without getting some solid advice that I hope you experienced guys can give. Thanks!!

A start job is running for /dev/mapper/luks-22d6ffdc-91a9-4c97-ac75-1f30bca3e10c (xxs / no limit)

Still struggling with this. Now garuda-update automatically installs dracut even if I don’t run garuda-health --fix so I am having to load from a snapshot each time I attempt a fix then update. Pretty annoying lol.

All my files seem correct.

Thanks for any help or ideas you may have. Hoping I don’t have to do a fresh install.

It seems like it is actually doing something because I added systemd.debug-shell=1to the kernel command line and the start job changes to different things, not just the dev/mapper/luks device. I don’t remember how long I have let this go on before I hit CTRL ALT DEL and start over again from a snapshot. I want to say I have let it run for at least 20 minutes.

  • Your picture “tells” me that you don’t have problems with the root partition but with another drive/ partition.

Your swap partiton is the problem (my mind)
pls post your fstab + lsblk -fs

Is your swap partition in the crypttab ? (etc/crypttab)
Your crypttab post, sorry for me… :person_gesturing_no:
Next time pls don’t edit (in your case post 1) after another post.
As Info:

and post output from:
sudo cryptsetup luksDump /dev/sde

My knowledge about this. If mkinitcpio or dracut and garuda works with dracut.
Install dracut → uninstall mkinitcpio.
Reboot and = ?

Yes it is

# /etc/crypttab: mappings for encrypted partitions.
#
# Each mapped device will be created in /dev/mapper, so your /etc/fstab
# should use the /dev/mapper/<name> paths for encrypted devices.
#
# See crypttab(5) for the supported syntax.
#
# NOTE: You need not list your root (/) partition here, but it must be set up
#       beforehand by the initramfs (/etc/mkinitcpio.conf). The same applies
#       to encrypted swap, which should be set up with mkinitcpio-openswap
#       for resume support.
#
# <name>               <device>                         <password> <options>

It won’t give me any output for that command. Maybe my syntax is wrong?

$ sudo cryptsetup luksDump /dev/sde
Device /dev/sde is not a valid LUKS device.

$ sudo cryptsetup luksDump 22d6ffdc-91a9-4c97-ac75-1f30bca3e10c
Device 22d6ffdc-91a9-4c97-ac75-1f30bca3e10c does not exist or access denied.

$ sudo cryptsetup luksDump luks-22d6ffdc-91a9-4c97-ac75-1f30bca3e10c
Device luks-22d6ffdc-91a9-4c97-ac75-1f30bca3e10c does not exist or access denied.

I completely uninstalled mkinitcpio and updated the system and ran garuda-health --fix to install garuda-dracut-support and rebooted and the system still hangs running the start job for the luks swap. I let it run for over an hour yesterday before I finally gave up and stopped it and loaded from a snapshot again.

I wish I knew specifically what the system was trying to do when it says:

A start job is running for /dev/mapper/luks-22d6ffdc-91a9-4c97-ac75-1f30bca3e10c (xxs / no limit)

Is there a way for me to set a timeout instead of ‘no limit’ as a workaround for now? Another option would be for me to delete the swap for now and see if that allows me to boot and update successfully.

I may have solved it. A bit of a weird fix.

I had to remove the resume reference from my /etc/default/grub

resume=/dev/mapper/luks-22d6ffdc-91a9-4c97-ac75-1f30bca3e10c

Out of curiosity, after I got through the boot and into the system, I tested if my system could still hibernate and it could. Strange…

Not really sure why installing dracut broke my grub swap reference all of a sudden. Anyways, I am glad to have it working now. Thanks for the ideas @gampel

Yes exact.. would have the info from /proc/cmdline
But you was faster. :partying_face:

Do you have a file in folder /etc/dracut.conf.d ? (only as Info for myself)
and sorry the syntax sudo cryptsetup luksDump /dev/sde is not enough
if sudo cryptsetup luksDump /dev/sde2 or sde3

/etc/dracut.conf.d/ is empty.

Thx, with the new isos it exist a file from calamares, there.
