Yes it just seems like you fucked up your crypto related config

burnt ivy
#

chroot back in

#

and edit the relevant configs

#

it's been a while since I've dealt with FDE myself

#

if you/we can't fix it I know someone that knows a lot more

#

boot into a linux environment and unlock your luks container manually and then mount it

#

cryptsetup luksOpen

#

dracut rescue shell??

#

your initramfs should include luksOpen

#

can you try

#

cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/nvme0n1p5 <your_container> (or whatever your LVM name was)

#

you shouldn't be able to mount it

#

without

#

opening it

#

then you do

#

mount /dev/mapper/<yourcontainer> new_root

#

and then you can exit

#

luks

#

/dev/mapper/luks

#

enabling support for apple silicon stuff

#

although I wouldn't reinstall

#

but then again

#

if yu literally forgot your key

#

to decrypt the partition..

#

i think you can

#

remove the key and add a new one

M1 is basically aarch64 with funny custom apple boot process

#

I'd just treat it like any aarch64 install?

#

if there's EFI Magic (not sure, no modern apple hardware) even easier.

I thought you need their kernel and mesa patches

#

you should be able to get a base install like any other aarch64

#

but I think after that you might wanna consider their patches

burnt ivy
