Apparently the reason my computer has been taking 2 minutes to boot was a faulty network mount

    I’m pretty sure the main system startup bottleneck is me typing the disk encryption passphrase.

      Combine that with the 20-30 seconds my system takes to do bios memory training on the DDR5 ram and we’re practically back to the “go make some coffee while the system boots up” days 🤦

      I wish to replace it with a yubikey, but I don’t even know if it’s supported.

        It is supported by systemd to use FIDO2 + pin to decrypt luks partitions with many security keys, including Yubikeys. I use it every day on my laptop.

        It is, I have it set up on my laptop. It’s a bit finicky in how it works and it’s not easy to setup, but it is possible.

          Does it work by emulating the keyboard and typing in the password? Or by the encrypted protocol that works using the on device secret?

        You can’t even use a fucking fingerprint scanner while being in the system, that package is borked for months and nobody seem to care to solve it.

        I think using Yubikey at boot time is quite out of reach
