non no, that is exactly, what I was not wanted. My goal was to have my environment completely and easily portable. Without the need of having virtualkbox or anything else: just plugin the usb-stick in ANY computer I want, and I have everything available. Instead of this, I could carry my notebook with me, but that is not what I want. Be prepared, also in any situations. And a usb-stick you can always carry with you. That was the idea. And except this little annoying question at boot - which is only annoying and does no harm - everyt6hing is running perfectly to my needs. Oh, and I believe, you are right, the cuase of this issue might really be the initrd (which maye can be configured somehow) and then chosen as the initrd, which is copied to the livesystem. Maybe I will take a look at this. However, it looks like no one else had other ideas, which are the files responsible, that the boot process is discovering the harddrive and wants to decrypt it. If no one else has any ideas in the future, I think, we should declare this issue as closed. I got a workaround, this is well enough for me. Thank you and all others for your help! Best regards Hans
