Hey there,
I have spent about two hours on getting it running but failed with different attempts.
Maybe you can help me, I have no idea left.
I want to run the root-fs on an external device (SSD via USB3.0).
Actually I want this encrypted but first things first, I need to get it running without encryption first.
I actually use for my desktop a nearly similar setup, boot is decrypted, root encrypted and I need to enter a password before it boots my setup. (A archlinux-derivate.) So this is not new to me.
What I want:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'sdcard
└─partition1 512M /boot
SSD (USB3.0)
└─partition1 30G crypt /')
What I tried:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '+++++ Variant1: +++++
sdcard
└─partition1 512M /boot
└─partition2 2G /
+++++ Variant2: +++++
sdcard
└─partition1 512M /boot
SSD (USB3.0)
└─partition1 30G /
+++++ Variant3: +++++ (with edited fstab pointing / to SSD-partition1)
sdcard
└─partition1 512M /boot
└─partition2 2G /
SSD (USB3.0)
└─partition1 30G /')
Both variants do not work. I also edited the /boot/boot.txt (changed the PARTUUID to UUID and PARTUUID to be sure) and ran mkscr and sd_fusing.sh again.
I edited the fstab to have the correct UUID values but the fstab seems to be ignored.
I hope you can help me.
What works is the simple variant getting everything on the sdcard on partition1. But that is not really a valid solution for me.
