I accidentally deleted my kernel and have been trying to get my system back into a workable state. I've gotten most of the way there by following instructions from a few different resources (1 and 2).



Unfortunately, I've not yet been able to boot my system from Grub and I'm pretty sure this is because I'm not passing the correct root filesystem path to the linux command. This is all complicated by the fact that my partition is encrypted with Luks. However, the partition is being decrypted and (I believe) mounted, as I can see it in Grub (using ls) at (lvm/debian--vg-root).



So, my question is this: how do I find the appropriate root filesystem path to pass to linux ... root=...? (I've tried lvm/debian--vg-root, but that causes a kernel panic after running boot.)

          Postfix configuration issue with fips on centos 7; mailgun relay

          Image
          Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 0 down vote favorite I am trying to setup postfix to relay all mail generated on the local machine via SMTP to a mailgun relay. I have used the mailgun relay before with success on an ubuntu server, but I am migrating to a Centos 7 server which I will be running in FIPS mode. There error log is below, slightly sanitized. I have a small enough network that I choose to have each machine reach out to mailgun individually (this the loopback-only, 127.0.0.0/8 restrictions) and no firewall open port allowing smtp in to the machine. I assume the FIPS mode (and with it disabling of MD5) is causing problems, but I don't know how to overcome it or if it is even possible for tls_fprint to use some supported hash such as sha256 or sha512. However, the relay=none is slightly concerning since I have relayhost set, but perhaps that is because the smtp process is failing? Any help would be appreciated! postconf -n: alias_database = hash:/etc/alia
