[gentoo-user] help securing system / remote unlock

[Simon Perfer]

Hi – I've successfully set up whole disk encryption by using LUKS and ZFS on top of it. I can boot by unlocking the drive via some remote console.


Can't seem to find a tool that will generate an initramfs with support for ZFS, LUKS and Dropbear so that I can remotely unlock the system.


Ubuntu makes it very easy to enable Dropbear in their initramfs. I could have sworn I've done before via some popular / existing initramfs tool on Gentoo but can't seem to remember which one (or if it's even possible).


Short of building my own custom initramfs or hacking dracut, bliss-initramfs, etc., are there any pre-baked solutions I can rely on?


Thanks!
