Leah Rowe, libreboot's - lead maintainer, also uses Debian. See: - <a href="../distros/">../distros/</a> - </p> - <p> - Libreboot on x86 uses the GRUB <a href="http://www.coreboot.org/Payloads#GRUB_2">payload</a> - by default, which means that the GRUB configuration file - (where your GRUB menu comes from) is stored directly alongside libreboot - and its GRUB payload executable, inside - the flash chip. In context, this means that installing distributions and managing them - is handled slightly differently compared to traditional BIOS systems. - </p> - - <p> - On most systems, the /boot partition has to be left unencrypted while the others are encrypted. - This is so that GRUB, and therefore the kernel, can be loaded and executed since the firmware - can't open a LUKS volume. Not so with libreboot! Since GRUB is already included directly as a - payload, even /boot can be encrypted. This protects /boot from tampering by someone with physical - access to the system. - </p> - <p> - This guide is written for Debian. - This also works in Trisquel 7 (probably Trisquel 8), and probably Trisquel 6. Boot the 'net installer' (Install Trisquel in Text Mode). - <a href="grub_boot_installer.html">How to boot a GNU/Linux installer</a>. - </p> - <p> - <b>This guide is *only* for the GRUB payload.

This protects your system from an attacker simply booting a live USB and re-flashing your firmware. <b>This should be different than your LUKS passphrase and user password.</b> - </p> - <p> - Use of the <i>diceware method</i> is recommended, for generating secure passphrases (as opposed to passwords). - </p> - - <p> - The GRUB utility can be used like so:<br/> - $ <b>grub-mkpasswd-pbkdf2</b> - </p> - - <p> - Give it a password (remember, it has to be secure) and it'll output something like:<br/> - <b>grub.pbkdf2.sha512.10000.711F186347156BC105CD83A2ED7AF1EB971AA2B1EB2640172F34B0DEFFC97E654AF48E5F0C3B7622502B76458DA494270CC0EA6504411D676E6752FD1651E749.8DD11178EB8D1F633308FD8FCC64D0B243F949B9B99CCEADE2ECA11657A757D22025986B0FA116F1D5191E0A22677674C994EDBFADE62240E9D161688266A711</b> - </p> - <p> - Use of the <i>diceware method</i> is recommended, for generating secure passphrases (instead of passwords). - </p> - - <p> - Put that in the grub.cfg (the one for CBFS inside the ROM) before the 'Load Operating System' menu entry like so (example):<br/> - </p> - <pre> -<b>set superusers="root"</b> -<b>password_pbkdf2 root grub.pbkdf2.sha512.10000.711F186347156BC105CD83A2ED7AF1EB971AA2B1EB2640172F34B0DEFFC97E654AF48E5F0C3B7622502B76458DA494270CC0EA6504411D676E6752FD1651E749.8DD11178EB8D1F633308FD8FCC64D0B243F949B9B99CCEADE2ECA11657A757D22025986B0FA116F1D5191E0A22677674C994EDBFADE62240E9D161688266A711</b> - </pre> - <p style="font-size:2em;"> - MAKE SURE TO DO THIS ON grubtest.cfg *BEFORE* DOING IT ON grub.cfg. - Then select the menu entry that says <i>Switch to grubtest.cfg</i> and test that it works. - Then copy that to grub.cfg once you're satisfied. - WHY?

This is a common roadblock for users) - </p> - - <p> - Obviously, replace it with the correct hash that you actually got for the password that you entered. Meaning, not the hash that you see above! - </p> - - <p> - After this, you will have a modified ROM with the menu entry for cryptomount, and the entry before that for the GRUB password.
