A lot of hits from googling grub colemak including https://forums.debian.net//viewtopic.php?f=16&t=76833 which uses dvorak as an example. I don't recall the definition of "boot time password". Does this denote something that Grub asks, or is it when dmcrypt is running from the initrd? — Which is a reminder: is your keyboard definition in /etc/default/keyboard getting incorporated into the initrd or not? Cheers, David.
