Richard Laager 0f256176d9 initramfs: setup keymapping and video for prompts ... From Steve Langasek <steve.langasek@canonical.com>: > The poorly-named 'FRAMEBUFFER' option in initramfs-tools controls > whether the console_setup and plymouth scripts are included and used > in the initramfs. These are required for any initramfs which will be > prompting for user input: console_setup because without it the user's > configured keymap will not be set up, and plymouth because you are > not guaranteed to have working video output in the initramfs without > it (e.g. some nvidia+UEFI configurations with the default GRUB > behavior). > The zfs initramfs script may need to prompt the user for passphrases > for encrypted zfs datasets, and we don't know definitively whether > this is the case or not at the time the initramfs is constructed (and > it's difficult to dynamically populate initramfs config variables > anyway), therefore the zfs-initramfs package should just set > FRAMEBUFFER=yes in a conf snippet the same way that the > cryptsetup-initramfs package does > (/usr/share/initramfs-tools/conf-hooks.d/cryptsetup). https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zfs-linux/+bug/1856408 Reviewed-by: Brian Behlendorf <behlendorf1@llnl.gov> Reviewed-by: Kjeld Schouten <kjeld@schouten-lebbing.nl> Signed-off-by: Steve Langasek <steve.langasek@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Laager <rlaager@wiktel.com> Closes #9723		2020-01-22 13:49:05 -08:00
