There’s nothing to do that out of the box, but starting Dropbear from
the initrd is feasible. In a nutshell, you could take a look at
‘raw-initrd’ in (gnu system linux-initrd) and insert a snippet that
spawns Dropbear there. Or maybe ‘luks-device-mapping’ could have an
option for remote unlocking over SSH.
HTH,
Ludo’.
