GRUB with LUKS, any way to have passwordless boot using USB key?
by phalange from LinuxQuestions.org on (#58MEP)
So on a full-disk luks install, there are two password prompts -- one BEFORE the bootloader splash screen appears and one during the dmesg parade.
The second one was an easy solve by storing a luks key on a usb device and pointing to it in mkinitrd.
It's the first prompt I'm wondering about. Is there a way to use a stored luks key to automatically handle that one too?
