Subject: Re: [PATCH] 90crypt: keys on external devices support
Date: Tue, 19 Oct 2010 14:54:48 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4CBDA328.40401@googlemail.com> (raw)

I am currently trying to modify dracut (I am on up-to-date FC13 x86_64) 
so that it enables me to use my smartcard token to unlock (and use) a 
boot partition. As a secondary task I would then try and automate a 
similar process (through the smartcard event manager - pkcs11_eventmgr) 
when the card is inserted to automatically ask for pin and unlock LUKS 
partitions.

That was the reason I have stumbled across this patch - 
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-initramfs/msg01402.html and the 
subsequent response that it has been included in the repository for 
dracut. That was a couple of months ago.

Could you tell me whether this feature is already implemented in 
FC13/FC14 repositories and if not what are the plans? I am also 
interested to see whether there are plans (or, indeed attempted 
implementations) to introduce smartcard support to LUKS partitions (boot 
or not)? Many thanks
