You can compile cryptsetup into the kernel? I didn't know that. Interesting. Have you a reference for that?
Or are you trying to say that you're booting without a initrd (which is said to be in general broken for decades).
Also the secure boot question remains.
I still don't get why complicate things in such way.
Imho nothing is simpler than copying a (signed) boot-image onto the (firmware manged) boot partition, and be done.
- krzyk 4y agoIs cruptsetup standard nowadays, or something that one would call a "real storage support"? Yes I'm booting without initrd, because in my case I don't need it - no cryptsetup and I don't need optional drivers because my setup doesn't change the hardware. (e.g. general distro kernel has to have it because they add modules for every hardware there is to support each user). How is boot without initrd broken? I use it since my first kernel compilation and find it simpler than dealing with initrd.
