The rEFInd docs state: Under Linux, you can learn a filesystem's label by using blkid, as in blkid /dev/sda1. The filesystem's label, if set, is identified by the keyword LABEL in the output. Some versions also return the partition's label and partition GUID (referred to as PARTUUID by blkid) Yes, but drives with MBR also have a PARTUUID. It is in the format <disk identifier>-<partition number> where partition-number is a two-digit hex value. I ship EasyOS as a image for a USB-stick, with MBR, and...

Sorry about that, I didn't see that it made it into 0.13.0. I'm still on 0.12.0. That's great!

I posted this fix for ext4 fscrypt back in 2020, it seems to have been ignored. So bumping this thread.

Bumping this, it seems to have been overlooked. To whoever is committing to refind, this patch works well. Have been using it in EasyOS since July 2020, no problems.

I have created a patch to fix ext4 with fscrypt enabled. Rod, check it out, and include it in the source if you wish. I did a test, with both fscrypt enabled and not enabled, and rEFInd recognised the filesystem in both cases. Note, I have acknowledged Grub developer Eric who showed me how to do it, see my blog post: https://bkhome.org/news/202007/refind-patch-for-ext4-fscrypt.html

Took awhile before the penny dropped. Couldn't understand why rEFind was ignoring the partition. Had a manual stanza with volume <label> and it was just being ignored. Eventually found the cause. I had run this on the partition: # tune2fs -O encrypt /dev/sda9 This does not encrypt anything, just turns on the capability of per-folder encryption. The partition is mountable and usable as before, GParted sees it, it works as before. Except that rEFind no longer sees it.
