Okay, I give up. Anyone know why a LUKS password entered during Debian boot doesn’t unlock the drive, but the same password given to β€œcryptsetup luksOpen” works fine?

Does the initramfs have the required modules etc in it? If the crypttab isn't quite right, the initramfs builder can sometimes get things wrong.

Just digging into the initramfs. I think so, because cryptsetup from the initramfs works to unlock the drive. It seems to be specifically how it’s being called during boot.
