Force /etc/crypttab entry for inclusion in initrd.

[Mike Mestnik]

Hello,
  I've looked over the grub hooks for selecting key and application material for inclusion in the initrd and this stuff is fantastic!

However I've noted there is currently no way to force a entry in crypttab to be included and opened by the initrd. One possible use for this is migration, where the root partition is copied or another system is bootstrapped and thus is needed to be opened in the initrd but currently this can not be automatically detected.

I can try and explain better, I know I'm not always vary good at making myself clear.

What does this have to do with gdisk? It sounds like it's describing a GRUB issue.
