|    TrustedGrub2 No TPM found Error    |

      From: pj@7.invalid.ru              I have a Lenovo m-91p SFF desktop computer. I attached a 128GB Kingston       ssd as the only hdd. I installed openSUSE TW on the computer with LUKS       encryption and I believe I enabled within YaST2 > Boot Code Options >       Trusted Boot Support. I updated the computer with "zypper dup"       powercycled and things were really working well as far as the speed of       the cpu etc.              I then put the computer away for a year and the LUKS password was       documented correctly. I took the computer out of storage and was       attempting to unlock the disk at Grub2 menu a number of times with a       incorrect variation of the LUKS password. I finally realized that I was       attempting the wrong password and referenced the correct password. By       that time I had powercycled many times and removed all but 1 of the 4       DIMMS from the board to get to POST and unencrypt LUKS and login to KDE.       I updated the machine with the "zypper dup", I decided to then       powercycle the machine (a very large number of updates).              After powercycling the machine it was blank no POST let alone a Grub2       boot menu. I removed the remaining DIMM and then attempted a series or       variations with the existing 4 DIMMS with no luck to even access BIOS or       see a POST displayed. If all DIMMS are removed there is a series of       audible beeps heard in a round robin sort of sounding (around and around).              I attempted to attach the afflicted ssd to a functional desktop machine       operating under openSUSE TW. The device is listed/shown with "lsblk" The       ssd is not able to be mounted manually through GUI in KDE or manually       from bash terminal Incorrect password is displayed time after time. I       have tried attaching a PS/2 style keyboard to the functioning desktop       and loading into TW then trying the proper documented password with no joy.              I attached the afflicted ssd as the sole/only ssd to the known       functional machine. I powered on the desktop and was displayed       TrustedGRUB2 No TPM found Error.              My questioning for you is: did my multiple attempts to enter an       incorrect LUKS password time after time (after taking the computer out       of storage) cause a possible mainboard failure or perhaps a DIMM       failure? The computer/machine is not posting whatsoever. As I have said       earlier in my message I was finally able to enter the correct LUKS       passphrase with 1 DIMM 2GB in size then update the machine. Upon       powercycling the machine there was absolutely no post let alone a Grub2       unlock key displayed.              Can I maybe reinstall a fresh grub2 on the drive?              I welcome your thoughts on this and do understand that I am not an       advanced user. I understand that I made a somewhat poor judgment mistake       by not verifying the exact LUKS password after removing the machine from       storage.              -Thanks              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
