Let's hope the mailing list let's this go through.


Keep in mind, this is based on the assumption that your whole / 
partition is LUKS encrypted (in my case now LUKS2). 
"root-partition-UUID" is the UUID that's shown in Disks or on the Grub 
screen for the decryption password prompt. Now, I can't say for sure 
what "root-partition-UUID2" is, but that's what seems to be symlinked to 
/dev/dm-0 and with blkid, one of the entries will look like this:


/dev/mapper/luks-<root-partition-UUID>: UUID="<root-partition-UUID2>" 
BLOCK_SIZE="4096" TYPE="ext4"


So maybe it's just some kind of virtual UUID for the decrypted root 
partition.
