I had this issue too, but my setup is more standard and oddly enough, I had it *much* worse than others. I only have /home encrypted via LUKS. Paritions are standard for TW (meaning / is btrfs with default TW setup).
So while I could not get the password prompt to work at all, even if disabling plymouth via grub, I also had the "pleasure" of having all my snapshots removed! I could not rollback because all snapshots disappeared from grub and from /.snapshots in recovery mode.
After much cursing (which helps a lot in these types of situations & I highly recommend it), many reboots and trial and error, including editing crypttab because the man page has wrong info re the password entry, by some miracle, I finally got my snapshots to show up in grub again. I took no further risks, and immedietly proceeding to rollback, locked every package that has anything to do with plymouth, and zypper dup again. Now my system works fine.
I hate plymouth with a passion. Years ago I had a similar situation but without the disappearing snapshots (I reported a bug, but plymouth maintainer decided to ignore it after some time).
There was talk awhile back of removing plymouth from openSUSE. This needs to be done, not just talked about.
I'm most definitely not risking more horrors & decided not to "retry" to get logs.
Plymouth have ability to delete .snapshots? Maybe this have to be filed in a separate bug/feature request to limit plymouth permission? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
