Hi list, I just tried to issue the following command: cryptsetup -c aes-xts-plain -s 256 -i 5000 --master-key-file /kspace/tmpmaster luksFormat /dev/md125 /kspace/tmpkey.0 where tmpmaster and tmpkey.0 are binary files with entropy I wish to use for (tmpmaster) master key for the volume and (tmpkey.0) passphrase/key in key slot 0. When I run the command, cryptsetup asks for a passphrase nevertheless, although it is stated: luksFormat <device> [<new key file>] - formats a LUKS device As an alternative, I tried passing the key file for the slot via --key-file since the manpage states this has precedence if used. No change though. Is this a know bug? cryptsetup is still v1.1.2 Regards -Sven P.S.: Do I remember correctly, that the payload offset given by luksDump is always in 512 bytes sectors? _______________________________________________ dm-crypt mailing list dm-crypt@xxxxxxxx http://www.saout.de/mailman/listinfo/dm-crypt
