Hi Gabriel, that really depends on what you distro does for boot-up. Best ask there or look into its documentation. cryptsetup is just the commandline tool, it has no connection to the boot-up process. Some distro-specific mechanism can call it though, e.g. from an initrd. If there is no distro-specific mechanism, then things get more messy.
