Just to be thorough... On the graphical login screen see if there's an icon for choosing keyboard layout/language. It is possible for the command line (purely textual interface) to be different from the graphical interface. You can't remove disc encryption without re-writing every bit of data stored on the disc. When using an encrypted disc the system is decrypting the data on the fly, it's always encrypted on the disc. Are you sure you want to do that, or simply access the encrypted data? Of course, when it comes to updating an old installation of something with a new version of something else, there is every chance that the old encryption scheme isn't supported any more, so you would have to re-encrypt the drive (or just decrypt it, if you don't want encrypted contents any more). You should probably be booting from something else, and something that's compatible with the original encryption scheme, to do this. I wouldn't risk trying anything that was going to decrypt in-place when its running from itself, well not if the OS is encrypted. I'd be more confident about doing that if it's simply user data space that was encrypted. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.119.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Jun 4 14:43:51 UTC 2024 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
