What exactly about LUKS is incompatible with use of a kernel compiled to
include all key drivers including those to find the root filesystem
(thus eliminating a dependency on initrds)? Nothing in
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dm-crypt/Encrypting_an_entire_system
appears to absolutely require an initrd, for key storage or anything
else.

Anyway, I don't want to encrypt all discs on my Linux server for
numerous compelling reasons, and I'd rather not have a LUKS root
filesystem on my Linux laptops, either.
