Hey everyone!
I've got a problem: every time I reboot/launch my Mac I have a login screen. I enter my password and the process is completed, but after this I am asked to enter this one more time. And I finally get the access after the second attempt of typing it in. I didn't have this issue on Catalina.
It sounds like Disk encryption got enabled on your install.
This is normal— The preboot partition contains the code which handles the login for an encrypted drive, after that is successfully unlocked it is handed off to the main OS
When you have an encrypted boot volume you receive a log-in screen before the main OS boots, you have to authenticate that in order for the encryption key for the boot volume to be released, and here you log into your user account.
You do not have to shutdown. Simply let the mac sleep. If you want to secure your user logged in, use the key combination— Control Command Q — for a lock screen before you close the lid.
