transcaffeine ✨️<p>dear internet, i have a nixos with an efi-only partition and i want to do luks unlock via ssh from inside initrd. when setting network settings into `boot.initrd.network` and ssh config (with host keys in /boot/efi) into `boot.initrd.network.ssh`, i do not get any action in stage 1 attempting to either bring up the network nor launch SSH. i get the normal systemd-udev prompt for the luks passphrase. any ideas?<br><a href="https://mond-basis.eu/tags/nixos" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nixos</span></a> <a href="https://mond-basis.eu/tags/nix" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nix</span></a></p>
