Works fine. Regression test suite passes.

Working fine here.

Problem when restarting the PC, the launch crashes before being able to enter the password of the luke encrypted partition of the second disk (with the partition/home). With kernel 6.8.10, no problem.

it is possible that newer version of dracut can cause boot failure https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2281423 is dracut 060 available somewhere?

Available from koji, signed packages at https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/dracut/060/1.fc40/data/signed/a15b79cc/ . (Generally koji packages get signed shortly after they get into Bodhi, the signed packages are available using an URL similar to this one even if they're not in a repo anymore.)

@js314592 you should also be able to downgrade from the command line with

sudo dnf -y install fedora-repos-archive
sudo dnf --enablerepo updates-archive downgrade dracut

then run dracut again for 6.8.11.

Might want to set enabled=0 in /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-updates-archive.repo so it doesn't get considered by default.

no issues on Thinkpad P1 Gen4

@kparal no issues on Thinkpad P1 Gen4 ?

Is it ok with dracut 60 and kernel 6.8.11 or with dracut 110 and kernel 6.8.11 ? Thank you

@micmor I have kernel-6.8.11-300.fc40.x86_64 and dracut-101-1.fc40.x86_64 and everything works fine, unlocking my drive is also ok.
