Hi Guys,
I insert my encrypted usb flash drive and mount it on my ubuntu workstation. When it was mounted, I tried to format the usb fd using gparted gui but it did not succeed so I proceed in putting my data on the mounted usb fd. After putting all my data, I reformat the pc and when it boot up, I insert the encrypted usb fd. To my surprise, it is no longer accepting my passphrase (surprise!). I'm sure my passphrase is correct.
Could anyone on the list help me recover my files? Here are some commands might be relevant to my problem
nelson@kazekage:~$ sudo cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sdb1 test
[sudo] password for nelson:
Enter passphrase for /dev/sdb1:
