    People should stop using plain passwords to protect data and switch to something better.oster/ + Yubikey
  • Is There Something To Improve to my arch install "Guide"?
    2 projects | /r/archlinux | 21 May 2022
    This is my personal preference, but consider switching to booster.

    initramfs: booster - TPM2 support, way faster than mkinitcpio, autodiscovering root partition
  • Complex Issue:
    2 projects | /r/archlinux | 28 Mar 2022
    Note I'm using booster, so assuming you're using the default mkinitcpio you probably want /boot/initramfs-linux.img. Also, don't forget to modify if your ESP isn't mounted at /boot like mine.
  • Systemd 250 released
    9 projects | /r/linux | 23 Dec 2021
    Booster initramfs generator supports TPM, Yubikey and Network binding so you can easily protect your data using the strategy you want.
  • Booster dont loads with efistub
    2 projects | /r/archlinux | 12 Dec 2021
    check the latest changes in https://github.com/anatol/booster/ project. Master branch has some fixes related to boot. Install booster-git from AUR.

    GPT table detection has higher priority at booster code. But for some reason it does not identify your partition table as GPT. Filed a github bug for it https://github.com/anatol/booster/issues/119
  • Booster 0.7 released
    3 projects | /r/archlinux | 11 Oct 2021
    Booster is an initramfs generator that aims to be simple, secure and fast.
    3 projects | /r/archlinux | 11 Oct 2021
    Me too prefer to have some unified way to created signed EFI images outside of initramfs generator. Though I do not think that pacman adds it anytime soon. Thus most likely it needs to be implemented at booster side. I just opened a request for it https://github.com/anatol/booster/issues/110
  • Booster 0.6 release, now with Yubikey support
    3 projects | /r/archlinux | 27 Jul 2021
    Yeah, booster still does not support plymouth https://github.com/anatol/booster/issues/44

  • Understanding event-sourcing using the Booster Framework
    2 projects | dev.to | 29 Apr 2021
    The code for the UpdatePhoneNumber and UpdateAddress commands, as well as for the PhoneNumberChanged, and AddressChanged events follow a similar pattern, so I'm going to skip them here, but you can take a look at them in the GitHub repo.
