Description Gentookh 2021-11-06 10:52:22 UTC

I have LVM on LUKS setup.

Here's what I get on boot:

>> Genkernel 4.2.5 ...
>> Activating udev ...
>> Scanning for volume groups ...
  Reading all physical volumes. ...
>> Activating volume groups ...
>> Using the following cryptsetup options for root: --allow-discard
Enter passphrase for /dev/nvme0n1p2: _

The cursor is blinking, I type the passphrase, then press Enter and nothing happens. Neither Ctrl-C work nor I get any response.

Comment 1 Gentookh 2021-11-06 13:14:51 UTC

Seems like no necessary keyboard modules loaded.

Related to the https://bugs.gentoo.org/341193

The fix is to add following modules: atkbd i8042
To the /usr/share/genkernel/defaults/modules_load
