- Created a USB drive with one ESP and one LUKS partition
- Created LVM swap and root partitions inside LUKS volume
- Copied working system from eMMC to USB drive
- Used manjaro-chroot to install GRUB
This USB drive can now boot from GRUB, and prompts for the LUKS password. After entering it, it takes about 3 minutes to unlock the key, then drops me at the GRUB prompt. It appears that there are no menu entries at all.
Any ideas on how to continue? And on a related note, any ideas on how to speed up the cores in GRUB so that it unlocks the key faster?
I think if you have a TPM (Trusted Platform Module) chip on your system, you might be able to configure it to store the encryption key, which can speed up the unlocking process.
