Subject: bug#55723: [PATCH] doc: Warn about LUKS2-encrypted boot not working with GRUB.
Date: Sun, 5 Jun 2022 12:38:03 +0200
Hi Josselin,

> +Note also that having @file{/boot/} reside on a LUKS2-encrypted device
> +is currently unsupported because of a GRUB 2.06 bug, see
> +@url{https://issues.guix.gnu.org/55723, bug #55723}.  The graphical
> +installer defaults to LUKS1 for this reason.
instead of adding yet another exception, why not just document how
to do it with LUKS1, which – as I understand it – works without
these quirks?

Cheers,
Lars
