Thank you! Cryptsetup is now in my initramfs. I am close, but there still remains one issue. When updating the initramfs, I get: cryptsetup: WARNING: root target luks.root uses a key file, skipped But it doesn't use a key file. My cryptsetup is: luks.root UUID=xxx pwd luks And my fstab contains: /dev/mapper/luks.root / btrfs defaults 0 0 When I boot the system, I drop into initramfs. There, I can open the root disk myself and continue the boot process. /D
