Hello,
In Mageia it has been proposed that GRUB_ENABLE_CRYPTODISK=y be made the
default setting in /etc/default/grub for all installations, whether they
use encryption or not.

The discussion happens every now and then.

OK, thanks for the link.

In the case of Mageia the default installation puts everything required
by grub under /boot, so AFAICT this should not cause a problem.

... but it does.

I found time to do some testing, and adding it to the config on a system with no encryption at all causes an error message:
error: device name required.

this seems to be triggered by this line which grub-mkconfig adds to grub.cfg:

cryptomount -u

this causes a "Press any key to continue" message.
In practice the boot continues after about a 10 second delay without pressing a key.

I have confirmed this in VM and real h/w.
