Subject: [pve-devel] [PATCH installer] btrfs: write /etc/kernel/cmdline unconditionally
Date: Tue, 8 Apr 2025 21:18:06 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250408191806.2410107-1-s.ivanov@proxmox.com> (raw)
the recent change of handing the ESPs to proxmox-boot-tool broke
installation on btrfs booted with systemd-boot (currently efi-systems
without secureboot). our systemd-boot config-generation takes the
kernel commandline from /etc/kernel/cmdline - without this there is no
root= parameter, and we end up in a initramfs shell.
write the file unconditionally of boot-mode (legacy, efi,
efi-secureboot), to be consistent with the way we do it on ZFS.
the uuid is stored in a variable instead of running blkid multiple
time primarily to not end up with different versions of a similar
command in the future, at the expense of 3 change-sites which are
quite far apart.
Fixes: dc5b8d7 ("btrfs: use proxmox-boot-tool to sync ESPs for RAID installs")

tested minimally with a vm with a single disk booted with a efi-disk without
enrolled keys - as this is what broke for me.
