Hi Denis,

thank you for your comments.
Yes, the libreboot payload is GRUB and I generated the grub.cfg (saved
as libreboot_grub.cfg but also tried as grub.cfg) like you described.
And yes, the grub.cfg is on an encrypted partition and that's why you
have to boot manually the first time. That is where I am stuck.

On another laptop everything works as planned. The LUKS passphrase is
asked for in GRUB and when booting the kernel.

I am sorry but I really don't have the skills to just try and fix the
graphics issue. I wouldn't even know where to begin. Unfortunately, I
am neither a programmer nor a developer. As I see it I'd still have to
boot manually from GRUB in order to re-flash and test. As far as I
understand the re-flash is not about the payload (that's already GRUB
in libreboot) but the automating of booting from the encrypted
partition (e.g. asking for the LUKS passphrase).

I did read about TRIM and I never enabled it on any of my encrypted
SSDs. I will read more about GPT and GRUB as well.

I guess it is all about the manual booting because no matter what I
change in GRUB I still have to decrypt the disk first. I somehow
didn't get this straight until I wrote these lines. Sorry.

Best regards
Andreas
