I think this could have something to do with incompatibilities between the ubuntu kernel and the zfs system. Basically the kernel overtakes the zfs system and becomes too new to work with the zfs system
See the file I attached (dump.txt). It seems to me, that the kernel assumes some symlink functionality to be present in the zfs system, but it is not. It is from dmesg during boot. The system eventually boots anyways. Solutions: 1) Downgrade the linux kernel to the latest compatible version. I think that is 6.8.0-50-generic. For now I am back on 49 simply because I had that on my disk. 2) Upgrade the version of zfs so that is compatible with 6.11.0-24-generic. Ensure the symlink functionality works as intended. I think this could be the root cause for the unability to enter a passphrase - if initramfs uses symlinks in the zfs system. ** Attachment added: "dump.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/2092649/+attachment/5874020/+files/dump.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2092649 Title: Can't enter passphrase for encrypted disk on splash screen after kernel updated to 6.8.0-51-generic Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Splash screen is not accepting/allowing passphrase for disk decryption during boot up.
