Subject: Failed to start service 'device-mapping
Date: Fri, 24 Jun 2016 19:49:06 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3ced718a-b8d0-3eb0-6c3b-ea9cd5513214@ninthfloor.org> (raw)


[-- Attachment #1.1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 787 bytes --]

I checked my config.scm (attached), but I don't see any missing parens
or any discrepancy from Ludo's example
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2016-04/msg00964.html>. I
also based the rest on rain1's github wiki:
https://gitlab.com/rain1/guix-wiki/wikis/encrypted-home-config.scm.

I booted the computer, and Grub loaded the kernel. Then, the device
mapper failed to start, and apparently, every service afterward also
failed to start: user-processes, guix-daemon, term-tty6, dbus-system,
xorg-server, etc. I'm trying to run with an encrypted partition mounted
at /home.

Do I need to correct my config.scm and run the herd and guix system init
commands again?
