Crypttab does not work out of the box with Artix OpenRC.
I have my root and home partitions encrypted with luks. The root partition gets mounted by grub as luks_root with no problem, but my home partition does not get mounted with crypttab and I don't know why.
Does somebody know how to enable crypttab on Artix? On Arch I have to do nothing but maybe it is because of systemd? Or can I mount both root and home partition with the grubs grub_cmdline_linux?
On booting I get this error:
fsck.ext4: Unable to resolve 'UUID=dc357b1d-............'
* Operational error

If you need more information, please feel free to ask! Thanks in advance!
/etc/crypttab has no effect in OpenRC (surprise, surprise). You should edit
/etc/conf.d/dmcrypt instead, read the comments inside on how to configure your home partition for automatic mounting.
EDIT: It's better to specify not the device name, but UUID of root partition in your kernel command line, like that:
cryptdevice=UUID=<UUID of your root partition>:luks_root
It's more consistent.
Thank you! I knew It would be something trivial. It's my first time using artix or openrc. I should have read the wiki more but I didn't know where to look to be honest.
Now its time to install artix on my main computer and say goodbye to my long-time friend systemd! ;)
