Hi,
my system has four partitions (boot, swap, root, home) of which swap and home are encrypted. home is decrypted during login via pam. When I boot, the systemd service "shadow" fails:
┏━[ ingo@buerk ]━[ ~ ]
┗━[ sudo systemctl status shadow
● shadow.service - Verify integrity of password and group files
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/shadow.service; static; vendor preset: disabled)

Quite obviously, /home/ingo will not exist because /home is only decrypted after this runs. How can I fix this?

Ok, never mind. I figured out what exactly shadow does and decided to just leave it. It won't hurt if it fails upon boot and it's time so it'll still run correctly if my machine is powered on and mounted at the time.
