Hello, after doing an installation with LVM and harddisk encryption enabled I need to enter the disk passphrase two times during boot. First when grub2 wants to read grub2 config and modules + initrd + kernel. And then a second time when kernel + initrd wants to mount the root filesystem. And to make it worse, I use special characters for my passphrase, which should be a good idea for a passphrase, and grub2 uses a different keyboard layout than the Linux installation. By that I need to type two different passphrases. To overcome this problem an unencrypted /boot could be used, but that is not the installation default. I could also add a second passphrase that uses a translated keyboard layout, but that is not very handy when I want to change the passphrase from time to time. It should be sufficient to type the passphrase only in grub2. After some research I found some Arch Linux specific instruction [1]. But this uses an Arch specific initrd hook to open the encrypted fs by reading a passphrase from a file included in the initrd. I haven't found an equivalent hook in the tumbleweed dracut config. Would this setup also be a possible solution for tumbleweed? How could it be configured? The other problem is the different keyboard layout. For this I found some older instruction [2] for grub to load a specific keyboard layout in early stage before access the disk, but it is stated that this is not possible for grub2 (links the opensuse113 docu). Also some Arch Linux instructions [3] for grub, but not explicitly for grub2. What is the "opensuse tumbleweed way" of configuring this?
