I have disabled translations because they have been the cause of build failures in both this package and grub-git. If you want to re-enable them, check the PKGBUILD.

Also, make sure you have installed base-devel.

Argon2 might not work on some devices due to issues with the memory allocator

Ax333l, I'm using a Dell Inspiron 3180

A little OT, but since Arch and NixOS share a lot of knowledge and people often come here for inspiration, I thought it may be of interest to someone my working NixOS overlay for grub2-git with these patches, proposed to someone else's repo for visibility: https://github.com/AtaraxiaSjel/nixos-config/pull/1

Working fine for months here, just rebuilt recently too, no issues at all. I use sd-encrypt also btw

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="rd.luks.uuid=My-UUID rd.luks.key=My-UUID=/crypt.key"

jroovy, I was also having problems on my laptop with this patch, but I was never able to figure out the cause. What device are you running it on?

Hi, I'm having trouble with this package Since updating to latest version, it doesn't want to unlock luks partition with the error: error: Invalid passphrase even when entered correctly

My configuration is as follows

/etc/default/grub:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="cryptdevice=UUID=<UUID_HERE>:root"
GRUB_ENABLE_CRYPTODISK=y

And I installed it with command: sudo grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot/efi --bootloader-id=GRUB --removable

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

All argon2 variants are supported. A UEFI installation is required due to the memory usage of argon2. An MBR installation on a UEFI system will not work.

grub-install --target=x86_64-efi should work. Check the arch wiki for more info regarding how to install grub with UEFI. If it fails to unlock at runtime, let me know.

Wow, thanks for this package! Amazing work.

I'm trying to set up this with Argon2id, but I just had the thought that maybe that one isn't supported? Edit: or maybe it is uefi? Can't get it to work..

Would you mind posting instructions for how you set this up yourself, maybe a blogpost or a gist?

Ax333l commented on 2023-02-05 00:05 (UTC)

Finally got time to update it. The patches are now much less likely to break in the future, so I have unpinned it.

Any chance this could go to the main repos? As it's quite useful

Hi. Isn't exactly a bug or something that compromises the usability, but the license shouldn't use commas (that's also making expac report a wrong license). Like this: license=('GPL3' 'CC0')
