50+ * hook up the TPM to /etc/crypttab, with a new option that is similar to the
51+ new PKCS#11 option in crypttab, and allows unlocking a LUKS volume via a key
52+ unsealed from the TPM. Optionally, if TPM is not available fall back to

68+ * systemd-repart: MBR partition table support. Care needs to be taken regarding
69+ Type=, so that partition definitions can sanely apply to both the GPT and the
70+ MBR case. Idea: accept syntax "Type=gpt:home mbr:0x83" for setting the types
71+ for the two partition types explicitly. And provide an internal mapping so
