I've been trying to put the devuan build of peppermint on my thinkpad T495 for the past few days and the OS will not boot after installation. The laptop will just boot-loop on the device selection screen. This is with encryption enabled.
I haven't tried any of the other init system versions available ( I like openrc cause it's speedy ).
I did try installing peppermint alongside antiX, just to see if I could get the antiX grub to update and pick up on the peppermint installation, but that didn't work either.
I just want a clean, encrypted disk with only peppermint on it.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
hmmm..... When Calamares installs a Devuan base with full disk encryption (LUKS), it configures /etc/crypttab and LUKS volume mappings. but, in non-systemd init setups (like OpenRC/sysvinit), cryptsetup-initramfs sometimes fails to properly populate the initrd image with the necessary decrypters or crypttab bindings during the post-install chroot.
