I am currently trying to modify dracut (I am on up-to-date FC13 x86_64)
so that it enables me to use my smartcard token to unlock (and use) a
boot partition. As a secondary task I would then try and automate a
similar process (through the smartcard event manager - pkcs11_eventmgr)
when the card is inserted to automatically ask for pin and unlock LUKS
partitions.
That was the reason I have stumbled across this patch -
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-initramfs/msg01402.html and the
subsequent response that it has been included in the repository for
dracut. That was a couple of months ago.
Could you tell me whether this feature is already implemented in
FC13/FC14 repositories and if not what are the plans? I am also
interested to see whether there are plans (or, indeed attempted
implementations) to introduce smartcard support to LUKS partitions (boot
or not)? Many thanks
