I don’t remember where or when but have set it back to

SigLevel    = Required DatabaseOptional

Im looking into it now

@megavolt

1. Mount your root partition:

sudo mount -m /dev/sda1 /mnt/system

I will restart live boot now as it fails

[manjaro manjaro]# mount -m /dev/encryp /mnt/system
mount: /mnt/system: special device /dev/encryp does not exist.
       dmesg(1) may have more information after failed mount system call.

For reference it was loaded with

cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/nvme1n1p3 encryp
