Cryptsetup has no gui and it does not do encrypted root. You can do encrypted root with cryptsetup in an initrd and your distro seems to do that. If you want to change this process, you likely have to modify the initrd created or delivered by your distro. The cryptsetup FAQ has some help there in Section 9, but do not expect a detailed guide: https://gitlab.com/cryptsetup/cryptsetup/-/wikis/FrequentlyAskedQuestions#9-the-initrd-question Regards, Arno -- Arno Wagner, Dr. sc. techn., Dipl.
