   Description     : WireGuard initramfs integration

Enables WireGuard networking during boot, before encrypted partitions
are mounted. Combined with dropbear this can enable fully encrypted
remote booting without storing key material or exposing ports on the
remote network. An Internet connection simply needs to exist that
can reach the WireGuard server endpoint.

Normal dropbear connections and DNS resolution can be used to find
WireGuard endpoints. This essentially enables the creation of a
fully encrypted remote-managed node, with the ability to prevent
all local access.

Hi Alexander,

That sounds awesome!

Do you need any help packaging or a sponsor for the upload? LMK.

Hi Daniel,

Yes, I will need a sponsor for the upload. The package is practically
ready, I will do a few last tests and let you know when it's ready.


Thanks,
Alex

Hi Daniel,

My tests were successful, and the package is ready. You can find it on
mentors.debian.net:

https://mentors.debian.net/package/wireguard-initramfs/

The repository is also available on Salsa:

https://salsa.debian.org/animux/wireguard-initramfs

Would you sponsor the upload, or should I create an RFS?


Thanks,
Alex

Hi all.

Is there any update on this? Having wireguard-initramfs in Debian Forky
would be very useful to me.
