Hi Folks, I did a stupid thing. I installed kubuntu 8.10, and tried to use the setup tool to activate my LUKS home directory, which is on LVM. In the LVM setup, I told it to use it as a volume for encryption, and input my key. When it didn't see my reiserfs partition and wanted to setup an ext3 one, I realized that it wasn't going to work, and told it to ignore the volume. Post install, I find that luksOpen works fine, but the block device isn't mountable. I also tried "dd if=/dev/mapper/newHome | strings", and it looks random... thus it seems that it's still encrypted even tho the luksOpen command claims to exit successfully. The luksDump command also seems to work. Is there hope for me, or am I sh*! out of luck? Thanks in advance for any help for any help you can offer.
