Hi, I need the remote unlocking, I currently use the console, while debugging this.
I have the exact same setup on other machines, just seems to a a peculiarity of this hardware. As far as I can tell the root cause is that dropbear does not detect that the network/eth0 is up, see below: How can I debug this further? There is however a bug in that if the network is not up and you enter the passphrase in the console, dropbear goes 100% cpu on 1 core with the missing cat/sleep binary. This fixes that issue: diff /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/functions /usr/share/initramfs- tools/scripts/functions.org 339,344c339 < if command -v sleep >/dev/null 2>&1; then < sleep 1 < else < #initramsfs is gone, bail out < break < fi --- > sleep 1 You then get this, but dropbear goes away. /scripts/init-premount/dropbear: line 149: cat: not found /scripts/init-premount/dropbear: line 339: can't create /dev/null: nonexistent directory done. /scripts/init-premount/dropbear: line 396: can't create /dev/null: nonexistent directory /scripts/init-premount/dropbear: line 377: ipconfig: not found /scripts/init-premount/dropbear: line 377: ipconfig: not found /scripts/init-premount/dropbear: line 377: ipconfig: not found /scripts/init-premount/dropbear: line 377: ipconfig: not found /scripts/init-premount/dropbear: line 377: ipconfig: not found /scripts/init-premount/dropbear: line 377: ipconfig: not found /scripts/init-premount/dropbear: line 377: ipconfig: not found /scripts/init-premount/dropbear: line 377: ipconfig: not found /scripts/init-premount/dropbear: line 377: ipconfig: not found /scripts/init-premount/dropbear: line 377: ipconfig: not found /scripts/init-premount/dropbear: .: line 385: can't open '/run/net- eth0.conf': No such file or directory I tried the BOOT=nfs, but that just times out and then you get a kernel crash. #Network is up: [Mon Aug 26 12:04:21 2024] BIOS-e820: [mem 0x0000000088ed2000- 0x0000000088efefff] type 20 ....
