I have my lvm partition luks encrypted. I'd like to be able to put a USB stick in the laptop and let that unlock the drive without a password, but if the USB stick isn't present, I want it to prompt for the password. In arch linux, I can make a hook into the initramfs where I can run some bash code to make this work. In Ubuntu/Debian, there is a keyscript line in /etc/crypttab that lets me do something similar. In Fedora, it uses systemd. And systemd seems to have its own unlock for the disk. Is there a way to hook into this using dracut in Fedora 28? For the moment, I simply removed all the systemd modules from dracut and added the old crypt module. That works, but I don't know what the systemd modules were doing or if it was a bad idea to do that. Thanks for any suggestions. -- John Ratliff Research Storage / UITS / Pervasive Technology Institute Indiana University | https://pti.iu.edu
