Hey Hans, I'm part of the group that maintains cryptsetup in Debian: www.debian.org Back in July 2007 we got a bugreport which suggests to provide some 'repair tools' for cryptsetup because of several data corruption issues cryptsetup and/or the linux dm-crypt/device-mapper implementation has. You can find the relevant bug report at http://bugs.debian.org/432150 Now from what i read in your mails, it seems like you have some experience with salvation/reconstruction of the luks header. could you elaborate on the methods you use, maybe in a way that could be automated in a script? thanks in advance, jonas --------------------------------------------------------------------- dm-crypt mailing list - http://www.saout.de/misc/dm-crypt/ To unsubscribe, e-mail: dm-crypt-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: dm-crypt-help@xxxxxxxx
