When using a usb-vm, my usb keyboard is not accessible at boot time,
and thus my disk encryption password must be typed on the built-in
keyboard. 

When not using a usb-vm, a usb keyboard can be used to enter the disk
encryption password.

When using a simple static password at boot typed by the yubikey (which
acts like a keyboard), it has the same limitations as the usb keyboard,
wherein it can't type the disk password when a usb-vm is being used. 

I could not determine whether the documentation discussing
challenge-response addresses this problem with boot-time disk passwords
as some sub-component ( https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/yubi-key/ ). I only
see the screensaver discussed, but not disk passwords at boot. 

While still using a usb-vm to manage all usb devices, is there any way
to authorize the yubikey automatically at boot time so it can type in
a password for me?

Also, here: ( https://github.com/adubois/qubes-app-linux-yubikey),  am I
missing the referenced qubes-yubikey-vm and qubes-yubikey-dom0 in the
repos, because they don't seem to exist?

Thanks!
