Bug 1225882

Tik Log

Attaching the tik log which hopefully can indicate something.

Eugenio, as the author of our LUKS handling code would you like a first look?

Sure, thanks for the bug report and log.

The luks devices closure happen after the migration, so if you don't see any other dialog in between the password entry and the error, I think there might be something else wrong as well.

Looking at the log, it looks like that the Legacy Aeon installation has been detected three times (while the installation process has been started ten times).
Is that correct?

I wonder if there is some race condition where the mapped unlocked device shows up too late, so it's not detected, and then for some reason something (btrfs?) keeps it busy.

These two issues might be separate.

Could you try executing in the terminal of the installer environment once the Welcome screen appears:

sudo -i
mount -o remount,rw /
btrfs property set / ro false
sed -i 's|probe_partitions $TIK_INSTALL_DEVICE|sleep 5;probe_partitions $TIK_INSTALL_DEVICE|' /usr/lib/tik/modules/pre/20-mig


then, please report if the migration module can reliably detect the encrypted partition (and eventually, if it doesn't fail anymore when calling luksClose).


Thanks!

Hey Eugenio,

Appreciate you taking a look at this and i would say that is correct. Been trying to see if i could get it to continue fully for the setup, but it still wont allow me and produces that error. Im quite new to to this overall but really appreciate how approachable MicroOS have been. 

I went ahead and executed the commands but at the end it mentions that it cant find the module for some reason. See attachment and it still produces the error.
One thing i have noticed though is that if i choose the option to "skip" typing in the password the installation seems to continue. If i go through with that, would it render the device potentially unbootable since the its encrypted?

New TIk Log

Hi Erik,

sorry I think that bugzilla wrapped my command; the sed is actually one single line.

> mount -o remount,rw /
> btrfs property set / ro false
> sed -i 's|probe_partitions $TIK_INSTALL_DEVICE|sleep 5;probe_partitions $TIK_INSTALL_DEVICE|' /usr/lib/tik/modules/pre/20-mig


If you skip, you can still install Aeon, but it will not migrate your existing installation so you would lose the existing data (please take a backup anyway just to be extra sure nevertheless :D).

Hey Eugenio,

Ah that might be the reason(In reply to Eugenio Paolantonio from comment #7)

Hey Eugenio,

Ah thanks for clarifying. The command now works and i noticed that it gets a step further in identifying the disk(shows the drive loading screen), but ultimately it still crashes with the same error:/ Attaching the updated.tik log which hopefully can show what happens.

Also thanks for explaining that the installation would go through and that it wont brick it, but definitely will take backup of existing data just to be extra sure:) I can wait for a few days though if you want to test something else.

Hi Erik, thanks for trying out what I suggested!

I think that a similar race condition might happen after unmounting the old partition. Apparently this has been observed already with btrfs [0].

Could you try running the same commands as before, but replacing the last command (sed) with this instead?

> sed -i 's|prun /usr/sbin/cryptsetup luksClose|sleep 5;prun /usr/sbin/cryptsetup luksClose|' /usr/lib/tik/modules/pre/20-mig


This is not going to be the actual fix, but if it works it might confirm my suspicions above.


Thanks!

Hey Eugenio,

You are much welcome and interesting.
I tried the new command and it seems to stay longer identifying the disk until it unfortunately provides the same error message. Attaching error message and the new tik log. Let me know if you find anything from it and if i can try something else before going through with reinstall.

Thanks again!

Please try the attached 20-mig file that has some fixes. Related Pull Request is on GitHub [0].

To try it out, download the attachment, put it into the IGNITION partition in the Aeon install media, then reboot to the installation environment and (while the Aeon installer is still in the main, welcome screen):


> sudo -i
> btrfs property set / ro false
> cp /ignition/20-mig /usr/lib/tik/modules/pre/20-mig
