== Multiple Encrypted Pools Issue == | |||
I tried following the "Import and unlock multiple encrypted pools/dataset at boot" section (and friends) but could not get it to work, with the dataset either not being mounted, or the boot aborting with a permission error. What finally fixed it for me: | |||
# Create pool like so: | |||
zpool create <your-other-options> -O keyformat=passphrase pool_name $DISK_HDD | |||
And use this for initrd.network.postCommands: | |||
cat <<EOF > /root/.profile | |||
if pgrep -x "zfs" > /dev/null | |||
then | |||
zpool import hdd # Import pool like in example | |||
sleep 3 # <---- THIS IS THE IMPORTANT PART | |||
zfs load-key -a | |||
killall zfs | |||
else | |||
echo "zfs not running -- maybe the pool is taking some time to load for some unforseen reason." | |||
fi | |||
EOF | |||
Long story short, I think the example on the ZFS page should include the sleep. | |||
