You are decrypting in place and then moving forward the beginning of the partition to skip over the missing luks header (which you then clean in step 5). Wouldn't be better to decrypt while shifting everything back and then (eventually) resize the filesystem to gain the extra space at the end of the partition? The final partition layout would be certainly cleaner and the process is simpler (remove "seek=1" and skip step 4 and step 5) (but I agree that your approach is easier to revert) Regards. -- Roberto Ragusa mail at robertoragusa.it -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
