What about changing the encryption approach to give an easy interface 
to encrypt user data on a file-per-file basis, with 'encrypt to self' 
as a default? 
That way the system does not need user intervention to boot 
and a password is only needed when an human wants to access 
the file (and he is hopefully available to enter it).
Of course that way you open yourself to an attack based on 
filenames, for which I'm afraid that the most effective solution 
is user education.
