Discussion First dip into Gentoo.

Installed Gentoo on my old steam deck as part of my dipping my toes into homelab/tech upcycling.

I've gotta say I am LOVING openrc. While I don't think systemd is awful or anything, I can kinda understand why openrc users glaze it so much.

I'm really tempted to main it. I think I might get a bit more experience before I take the plunge.

The handbook is really well written. Among the best documentation I've come across.

Installation de base avec KDE Plasma. J'ai juste installé quelques logiciels, outils CLI et fais un peu de configuration pour le moment. Demain je commence l'installation de l'environnement que j'utilise habituellement, hyprland. Je vais essayer de recrée ce que j'avais avant (je viens de Arch Linux).

Ma première expérience sur Gentoo commence très bien, j'en suis très content pour le l'instant.

Support Question About eclean-kernel post-remove plugin

6 Upvotes

Hi all Larry's Fansclub here ,
Im new to Gentoo , and have been diving around the Handbook looking around the reference about Kernel Hooks or maybe call it plugin *.install for post-removing the kernel version. Only found the pre-install and post-install available , which the default available for dracut ugrd efistub uki ukify etc , But im using limine as bootloader and creating the .install plugin for when installing / upgrade kernel the plugin will then automatically install the new entry ( im using ukify to build efi image and put that automatically in the limine.conf ) as fallback i USE efistub in installkernel package.use. My Issue is when removing / delete / uninstall kernel using eclean-kernel it doesn't automatically delete the efistub entry & uki image ( which should be handled by default plugin availalble) or trigger to regenerate the limine.conf ( this part , im sure there's something lacking in my script ) and i want to know what else im missing so the removal can trigger the rebuilding limine.conf when doing kernel removal ( which according Handbook should be triggered by the eclean-kernel or kernel-install )?
Thanks in advance moo

Edit : found the issue why 95-efistub-kernel-bootcfg.install not working , im missing the  app-emulation/virt-firmware

Support Gentoo / systemd-boot “ TPM extend operation occurred” on boot, system unbootable.

4 Upvotes

Hi, as above, upon selecting the systemd-boot entry for my Gentoo system from the UEFI, the message above floods the screen, rendering the system unbootable.

Selecting a bootloader on another partition works fine.

It looks like it’s coming from shim here: https://github.com/rhboot/shim/blob/main/tpm.c l112

I have a couple of questions:

1) how do I safely clear the TPM log if this is the issue?

2) how do I prevent this happening again? Is this something I’ve caused?

Thank you!
