Looking at the timouts suggested in Comment #15, I think they may actually be realizable with modular scripts. A base rootdelay script, and separate mdadm and cryptsetup sripts (that get called by their udev rules) can halt/extend the regular rootdelay (exported variable? named pipe?), if

I don't know if daily wake events can be programmed in the hardware real time clock. Yes, a small +wakup again checkbox or similar collapsible UI to enter a date would be sufficient I guess. But if it the UI could remember the last setting used this might already also allow daily (next day)

I believe the initramfs only sets up the rootfs, other partitions (/home) are set up afterwards. If I remeber correct cryptsetup is called by udev rules. In any case, that is the way it has to be, event driven, to catch on upon (/home) devices appearing without polling loops and sleep delays.

The udev rules don't need to prompt, the cryptsetup that gets called will prompt. Actually, these things work quite well in the normal system. It seems preferable to me to adjust/improve the regular tools to be usable in initramfs as well, rather then trying to script up and maintain! another

Since udev already provides an event driven framework in the initramfs, why add another one? Hmm, if you would like to realize event driven init scripts, I believe you may be able to rework the scripts from doing linear pre...post things to just call a watchdog script that mostly sleeps and

Thank you for testing, Phillip! Cryptsetup support should be on the CD. But it only seemed to run in the first boot up stage of the rescue CD and used to try to open the raid members there, even before you set up the raids with the debian installer. Good that it does not do that any more. I

If you still have the vm setup, you could just try to boot the text installer media again, enter the rescue mode and see how it wants to mount the existing raid disks (not degraded, both present) in the vm. That's where it used to always happen. Oherwise, only occasionally during normal reboots.
