Hey,

No, loader can't do that.

You would usually do this by having 2 installs, one unencrypted, one
encrypted. You would ssh into the unencrypted one to decrypt the
encrypted one.

Never done it myself, not 100% sure how you even set it up.

However I want to get serial working, full stop :)

I don't want to give up on it, so does anyone have an idea how to get
this working?

Thanks,
