I have openSUSE Leap 15.0 installed on my laptop, with both / and /home (separate partitions, both on SSDs) encrypted. On booting, grub2 asks for the passphrase to decrypt /, then takes about 10 seconds to offer an OS to load (there's only one). When Leap gets the passphrase to decrypt /home, it immediately proceeds with loading the operating system.
Grub is using the services of your BIOS (or UEFI firmware) to read the disk and locate the menu. I suppose a faster BIOS might speed things up (if available). Once Leap has loaded the kernel, it uses the faster kernel drivers to access the disk. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEzBAEBCAAdFiEEv7/MJoKYXv2p0PaIZJcsjNEnCIUFAlxwm2gACgkQZJcsjNEn CIUqsgf/WMiZ91e2R1mZi5Fbr0zFMtIh2YsE/hV9SSeXo0JizeHMmspveSih2fIS KKKWJ25QNERiFdynhe46geaaTz/Hu1Tl3TBr+H0gEDxjvEmNtpJaCbJk/uPxlJwQ A/x3EbYyBgpvypE7LAiAYzyn2mRotCVeebEaY/bUCRBb3mZwQCeM7IHHFlRKqu2V +vukb38OV9G9CkluvNwdVBqb2PETtPCX92SlBU83hIId8puj4SX2ekXXUgFPxQNu jAFPFgI9dCeiQAlfv2hcniNY1VsxVlwuLvcQ/aSBgPKyqWvsyq/zhqdIPy4xfGYo 2srPsAJc+bRflR6j/AcOEfD//OSM6Q== =pJED -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner@opensuse.org
