Unfortunately, I'm finding 512 MiB is not large enough for /dev/system/boot. So the script created a Volume Group with two volumes, /dev/system/boot and /dev/system/root. In any case, thank you for keeping the script up-to-date! My username isn't quite that long, 32 is just the largest value it will accept. In any case, I've changed the line as you suggest (with a couple of minor modifications), and applied the same change to the following line to be consistent. You have a long username! I've made this change as you suggest.
#Dropbox veracrypt install#
It works perfectly with Ubuntu 20.04.1Īs far as I know the guide is based on HOWTO - GPT/UEFI install with full disk encryption: BTRFSonLUKS with separate root, home and pkg subvolumes hibernation with a swapfile auto-snapshots with easy system rollback (GUI) boot into snapshots Warning: I tried this first on Ubuntu Mate 20.04.1 but restoring timeshift snapshots broke things. I have not managed to set up true hybrid suspend, or suspend-and-hibernate yet. Ignore the swap partition and just set up the swap file so you can resume from hibernate or suspend-then-hiberbate. Not sure if it will help you or not but when I was still using this setup and ran into issues booting running this fix-grub.sh script from a live USB saved me a few times: įurther, I considered Tj's setup but then I found this: Ubuntu 20.04 with btrfs-luks full disk encryption including /boot and auto-apt snapshots with Timeshift I'm on my phone so I will have to format properly another time.

How should one transition from your method "Manual Full System Encryption" script to TJ's method?
#Dropbox veracrypt update#
Refreshgrub: Grub update failed.\n\nPlease do not restart or shut down until you have manually run the following command, even if the Software Updater asks you restart.\n\nsudo should one uninstall/remove your script "Manual Full System Encryption"? Are there uninstall instructions? Please do not restart or shut down until you have manually run the following command, even if the Software Updater asks you restart. Grub-install: error: efibootmgr failed to register the boot entry: Block device required. X86_64-efi wird für Ihre Plattform installiert.Ĭould not delete variable: Invalid argument Refreshgrub: Grub update will be done automatically.\n\nDo not restart or shut down until you receive another message telling you that this has been done, even if the Software Updater asks you restart.\n\nDepending on your system, it could take several minutes. I had to add a couple commands to a batch script of mine that runs on startup, which pretty much checks if Dropbox is running, after my VC FDE drive is mounted, and if it’s not, then it starts both the process and desktop application right away (I would never notice until I would try to open an “offline” file and get an error msg).Do not restart or shut down until you receive another message telling you that this has been done, even if the Software Updater asks you restart.ĭepending on your system, it could take several minutes. Sometimes Dropbox doesn’t even start sometimes, if you don’t decrypt a VC FDE drive in time (sometimes it gives you a warning about missing drive or drive not mounted but not always). When using Veracrypt with Dropbox you’ll have to remember to wait a couple minutes after booting up so that Dropbox can start properly and sync all recent changes, which takes longer when you first have to decrypt a folder/file/container/drive first.
#Dropbox veracrypt Offline#
If you try to create/edit a folder or file with the same name of another folder or file that’s in offline mode this same issue can happen then too. This is also happens if you had folders or files in “offline mode” at any time (when disk space is running low many of us will set it this way temporarily for some larger files/folders that we won’t be using right away).

Dropbox doesn’t know which version to commit to and keep, so it keeps both of them, and they end up never syncing again until you resolve the sync conflict (Windows desktop app should give you warning notifications). This happens when, for example, Device “B” isn’t online at the same time that you make changes to one of the shared folders on Device “A”, and you then also make changes on Device “B” shortly after, but you do so before it gets a chance to sync your previously made changes from Device “A”. Your devices may have had a “selective sync conflict” in Dropbox, which happens occasionally when folders on different devices are syncing to the same Dropbox account with the same (mirrored) contents/directories but are often edited independently from both devices.
