"gpg key file decryption failed"

Hello,

I'm on step 19 of "7.6. Example 6 - Boot from CD-ROM + encrypted root 
partition".

dd if=/dev/hda2 bs=64k \
| /mnt/aespipe -e AES128 -K /mnt/rootkey.gpg -G / \
| dd of=/dev/hda2 bs=64k conv=notrunc

returns "gpg key file decryption failed". I tried it more than 10 times 
and even recreated rootkey.gpg/changed the passphrase. The keymaps are 
identical.

What else could cause this problem?

Thanks,

Christian
