The following reply was made to PR kern/157863; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Thomas Steen Rasmussen <thomas@gibfest.dk> To: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org, rsimmons0@gmail.com, stable@freebsd.org Cc: Subject: Re: kern/157863: [geli] kbdmux prevents geli passwords from being entered properly on boot Date: Wed, 13 Jun 2012 14:19:40 +0200 Hello, Just to let everyone know that this is still an issue. I am trying to install FreeBSD 9.0 amd64 on a Lenovo X121e and I can't get it to accept the geli passphrase during boot. I've confirmed using kern.geom.eli.visible_passphrase=1 that the passphrase is correct, and the same passphrase is accepted when the system is booted up. I've tried disabling kbdmux in /boot/device.hints like the PR said, but that didn't help. I also tried disabling atkbd and atkbdc without any luck, infact I couldn't type anything at all when disabling those. Any hints or suggestions to what I might try ? I have another 9-stable laptop that mounts a geli volume at boot, no idea why that one works and this new one doesn't. Thanks in advance, /Thomas Steen Rasmussen
