LUKS encryption

You mentioned in the article some things require udev. Is udev required for unlocking a LUKS partion? At least, when I tried following this tutorial, I couldn't get away with removing udev and encrypt from the HOOKS section.

As an aside, you can always build everything into your kernel. My only hooks are base and fsck with a LUKS encrypted /. -- Adamlau (talk) 08:05, 17 January 2017 (UTC)

Awesome! Is there a wiki about building stuff into your kernel? What did you build into your kernel specifically? Also, does this make upgrading your kernel more difficult? An2quo (talk) 22:07, 18 January 2017 (UTC)An2quo
