Because?
- shmerl 4y agoLet it be encrypted with everything else. That's the whole point of not using the boot partition.
- Arnavion 4y ago>Let it be encrypted with everything else. Why?
- shmerl 4y agoWrong question. Why not? I want everything to be encrypted. Something must be left out and it should be the least possible amount. Leaving out the kernel is clearly not the least possible.
- Arnavion 4y agoThen UEFI boot is not for you.
- shmerl 4y agoThat's the only one that's there unless you have custom firmware for the motherboard. So with UEFI, GRUB being left out is pretty small in comparison with leaving out the whole kernel.
- still_grokking 4y agoHave you ever looked at Grub more closely? It's actually a whole operating system by now! Only a very shitty one, and in comparison not well maintained…
