Bootloader related errors #98

Open Null-Kelvin opened 5 months ago

HD0 - GPT SATA HDD - some data partitions HD1 - NVMe SSD - one data partition for whole disk HD2 - NVMe SSD - EFI Boot partiton, Windows partition, data partition

Case 1:

  1. Install Windows, install diskcryptor, encrypt system - all works
  2. Encrypt partition from HD0 or HD1, restart
  3. Bootloader hangs Workaround - set "Boot from specified partition" and set Windows partition before encrypt other partitions. But that won't work, if other partitions would be already encrypted - for example, if I reinstall Windows.

Case 2:

  1. Have encrypted Windows partition, all working well
  2. Encrypt next partition to windows on the same disk, reboot
  3. Can't boot at all - error 0xc00000225 from windows bootloader Workaround - encrypt second partition with other password (but it's really inconvinient to mount it after boot manually)

It seems, that problem related to #5 and #93
