+Using GnuPG keys for LUKS dm-crypt devices in Debian
+====================================================
+
+The Debian cryptsetup package provides the keyscript `decrypt_gnupg` for
+setups with a GnuPG encrypted LUKS keyfile.
+
+The following example assumes that you store the encrypted keyfile in
+`/etc/keys/cryptkey.gpg`. LUKS device is `/dev/<luks_device>`.
+
+First, you'll have to create the encrypted keyfile:
+
+    dd if=/dev/random bs=1 count=256 | gpg --no-options --no-random-seed-file \
+            --no-default-keyring --keyring /dev/null --secret-keyring /dev/null \
+            --trustdb-name /dev/null --symmetric --output /etc/keys/cryptkey.gpg
+
+Next the LUKS device needs to be formated with the key. For that, the
+`decrypt_gnupg` keyscript can be used:
+
+    /lib/cryptsetup/scripts/decrypt_gnupg /etc/keys/cryptkey.gpg | \
+            cryptsetup --key-file=- luksFormat /dev/<luks_device>
+
+In order to unlock the encrypted LUKS device automatically during boot process,
+add the following to `/etc/crypttab`:
+
+    cdev1    /dev/<luks_device>     /etc/keys/cryptkey.gpg  luks,discard,keyscript=decrypt_gnupg
+
+
+Decrypting the keyfile at initramfs stage
+-----------------------------------------
+
+If the device is to be unlocked at initramfs stage (such as for the root FS or
+the resume device), the provided initramfs hooks should do all additionally
+required work for you when the initramfs is created or updated.
+
+Be warned though, that for such devices the GnuPG encrypted key is copied to
+the initramfs by the initramfs cryptgnupg hook. If you don't want this, you
+should take a look at the initramfs cryptgnupg hook, which is located at
+`/usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/cryptgnupg`.
