This adds the Thunderbolt details that the T2-Mint maintainer asked to have in the wiki instead of the T2-Mint README: t2linux/T2-Mint#30
state.md: notes in the Thunderbolt row that connected devices must be authorized (security leveluser), and links to the new section.guides/postinstall.md: adds a "Booting from a Thunderbolt drive" section. If/is on a Thunderbolt drive, the drive has to be authorized inside the initramfs, whereboltdis not running, or boot stops at the(initramfs)prompt. The section covers the one-off workaround from that prompt and a udev rule thatinitramfs-toolscopies into the initramfs.Tested on a Mac mini (2018) with Linux Mint 22.3 (T2-Mint
v7.1.8-1, now kernel7.2.11-3-t2-noble), with the root filesystem on an NVMe SSD in an ACASIS TBU405Pro enclosure connected over Thunderbolt 3:(initramfs)prompt. Writing1to the device'sauthorizedattribute and runningexitcontinued the boot.update-initramfs -u, the rule was present in the initramfs (lsinitramfs), and reboots over Thunderbolt complete without intervention.boltctl enroll --policy autostored the already-authorized enclosure in bolt.I have only tested
initramfs-tools, so the section only gives concrete steps for it and points other initramfs generators to their documentation.
