Thank you Martin. Just to provide the larger context of what I am trying to do: Root Filesystem Encryption (unlock using passphrase) during boot - I want to achieve this without using a custom kernel. This seems to be possible since the fs ramdisk-cgdroot.fs in boot.cfg(5) obviates the need for a custom kernel module with the ramdisk embedded. However, there is no guidance on this on the wiki/man pages. - I have a EFI boot partition but also another user defined partition (/xyz) that is not encrypted. I can make this bootable if there’s any utility to doing so. Once Root Filesystem Encryption is stable (unlock with passphrase during the boot process), I’d like to have the option to perform the passphrase based “unlock” of the root partition via SSH (and subsequently complete the boot process). -Arvind
