Hello I want to use a key-file instead a password for an existing lukspartition. How can I do it (??) root@dark:~# cryptsetup --version cryptsetup 1.1.0 For password, I do a: cryptsetup luksAddKey /dev/sda1 and it asks for the old password, then the new passwod: root@dark:~# cryptsetup luksAddKey /dev/loop0 Enter any passphrase: Key slot 0 unlocked. Enter new passphrase for key slot: Verify passphrase: root@dark:~# But how use it with a file? man says to use luksAddKey <device> [<new key file>] And here is the result: root@dark:~# cryptsetup luksAddKey /dev/loop0 /root/key Enter any passphrase: Verify passphrase: Key slot 0 unlocked. root@dark:~# cryptsetup luksClose /dev/loop0 Device /dev/loop0 not found root@dark:~# cryptsetup luksClose cipher root@dark:~# cat key | cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/loop0 cipher No key available with this passphrase. No key available with this passphrase. No key available with this passphrase. root@dark:~ What am I doing wrong? I prefer to use "cat key" for a later use. Why I have three error messages?
