You can now format using pre-generated master key, so you can reformat luks header without data loss (you will need to know all used passphrases though and specify exactly the same other arguments like cipher and data offset) Probably not big problem to write a script or C program using libcryptsetup to automate this. (libcryptsetup API have all needed calls now). (I thought about luksReFormat command but not sure if it is really needed.) But I think better no automatic updates of header here (it causes MK digest change) Milan -- mbroz@xxxxxxxxxx _______________________________________________ dm-crypt mailing list dm-crypt@xxxxxxxx http://www.saout.de/mailman/listinfo/dm-crypt
