I've recently decided to encrypt all my drives using luks, running on ubuntu 11.10. I encrypted my external drive, and loaded all my backups onto the drive. One morning, I tried accessing the drive, and it wouldn't accept my key phrase. I tried a couple of times, even tried some variations, but no avail. Then I stupidly thought of running fsck on the drive. I fixed a couple of innodes, but then stopped, realising that I was probably doing more harm than good.
When I run luksDump on that drive, I get all the expected information. My question is: is the header still intact. Is there any chance I can recover my data, owing to the fact that luksDump displays, what seems to me, a valid header? (I'm assuming that if luksDump shows the information, the header is intact).
thanks in advance
Nico
