Hedgehog Linux Breaking on Reboot after Encrypted Quick Install with Multiple Drives #941
|
We've installed the hedgehog 26.04.0 iso on a few sensors and vms as an encrypted quick install. We're having an issue across hardware where once you reboot the machines, they get stuck after you enter your crypt password. It hangs on: "systemd[1]: network-online.target: Wants dependency dropin /etc/systemd/system/network-online.target.wants/networking.service is not a symlink, ignoring. After a long while, it still tries to continue booting but throws other errors, mostly about the lvm/partitions. 
If anyone has seen this before, a fix would be greatly appreciated. Since this is happening on fresh installs across hardware, feels like its something that needs to be fixed at a higher level though. |

Hmm, sorry you're having this issue. I'm on travel for a few days but I will look at it as soon as I get back in the office Monday. I don't think any code in the ISO partitioning changed this release but hopefully I'll be able to repro it. Is this EFI or BIOS boot? |

No worries! This is BIOS on Proxmox and I believe EFI on the phsycial sensors. |

So I tested both EFI and BIOS on Proxmox, looks like when the encrypted quick install is used with just 1 drive, it works fine on reboot. I tested pre-config, post-config, and post-initial start. When I test on EFI and BIOS with 2 drives encrypted quick install, the system fails to reboot properly and shows the errors I posted earlier. These were tested pre initial start, but I did run through the config and copied the certs over from Malcolm. |

So the issue is Debian 13 doesn't come packaged with systemd-cryptsetup. I had to install it and then it fixed it right away. I also added nofail in fstab so the system wouldn't brick on a failed reboot due to this issue. |

Thanks for the assessment, I think you're spot on. I'll probably do a one-off dot release with just this change in it. |

Thanks again @Sk8Gnarley , fixed in v26.04.1 and tested with that release's ISO.
