Re: GNUinOS - Libre
/dev/mapper/gnuinos--vg-root does not exist dropping to a shell!
@zapper: read my last post in DNG, please
[DNG] vdev available for devuan
On the other hand, live isos required a couple of additional udeb packages in order to get disk encryption in debian-installer, named libargon2-1-udeb and libjson-c5-udeb
Do they work now?

Installing from the 2025-09-09 runit ISO with LVM encryption gives a familiar piece of advice about life:
ALERT! /dev/mapper/gnuinos--5--0--1--vg-root does not exist. Dropping to a shell!I should add that installing to disk from the 2025-09-09 live iso without encryption works well, with or without LVM. 
As usual, I have been using the runit XFCE amd64 iso image.

Thanks, prospero, the LVM partitioning without encryption worked for me as well. I will try to fix the issue with LVM encryption as soon as possible.

This feels snappier than ever.
Also, a minor video bug helped me locate the VM setting that had been slowing down startup for a while. Not sure whether a virt-manager update changed the defaults at some point, but after switching video mode to VGA the runit+xfce amd64 system is back to its earlier 7-8 seconds to graphical session. And the cursor is back to its usual form factor.

The runit XFCE isos tagged as 2025.10.08 worked with encryption. They have been uploaded today.
