Hello. I am using Fedora 19 and would like to be able to unlock the LUKS root 
partition on my hard drive using a two factor authentication of both a 
passphrase and a sector stored on a USB flash drive. Accomplishing this 
requires modifying the boot process to read a USB device.

This post <http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=241942>; also 
available on <http://www.gaztronics.net/howtos/luks.php>; gives information on 
accomplishing the unlock step using a USB key, but it does not work for Fedora 
19. I also found a bug filed which appears to be related 
<https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=459485>.

The problem I am having is that the boot process's unlocking of the LUKS 
container is no longer carried out by 
/usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/90crypt/cryptroot-ask.sh as it was in past versions 
of Fedora. I deleted the entire contents of that file and Fedora was still able 
to boot properly and asked me the password to the LUKS partition. My question 
then is, what scripts carry out the LUKS unlock step in the boot process of 
Fedora 19? And can they be modified directly like cryptroot-ask.sh was?

Thank you,
Odie5533
