nrv | * The config is... complicated in addition to all the trouble, i'm trying to do 1M BIOS offset + 600G luks zfs and then -1G reserve at the end and -512M off that ESP -4096 off that ext4 boot. So, ESP and another ext4 boot partition counting from the end, leaving a lot of space to possibly expand the ZFS later (1T drive).
For the time being i commented out the end part and try to create only the BIOS + main partition part.
No part of the disk is in use. I blkdiscarded and sgdisk --zapped it and rebooted and partprobed and whatever multiple times.
It is also healthy disk that i can manually partition with luks/zfs/ext4 and use | 09:56:48 |

nrv | So, sgdisk commands succeed, but then there is no cryptsetup in the log. It is in the script though, but refers to hardcoded random partlabels(?), dunno how that works, are they static and calculated at build time? | 10:01:27 |

nrv | /tmp/secret.key is also created | 10:03:08 |
nrv | i did actually forget that before and the error was different and intelligible of the issue | 10:03:33 |
nrv | ..so it's failed to open keyfile | 10:16:55 |
nrv | but cat /tmp/secret.key works | 10:17:08 |
