Hello Purism community,
After I tried to relace Qubes with Parrot OS home edition despite proper and previous MBR reformatting and disk wipe on one of my two Samsung 980 Pro 500GB SSDs in my 32GB RAM Librem 14 laptop, I still encounter this ‘cryptsetup fails bad passphrase or options’ when attempting manual partition of LUKS ecryption (flag checked at boot, /, primary) for the rest of the SSD while in try_/_install mode except boot (1152MiB, ext4, /boot, boot flag unchecked, primary); nevertheless without any encryption partition, Parrot OS boots and works perfectly like PureOS and Qubes with encryption enabled.
At least, I have PureOS as my primary OS and Parrot OS uses the same Calamares installer. Phew!
What should I configure in PureBoot/ParrotOS so that this silly error doesn’t occur again? According to Purism, any Linux OS should work on its laptops.
@Kyle_Rankin Since you’re the PureBoot/Linux expert, could you please suggest me any solution for avoiding this cryptsetup error for OSs other than Qubes and PureOS? I’d greatly appreciate your expertise since it’s an honor to me to correspond with you!
Best,
Caligula
