I use to have a setup with luks header on a separate file, as describe here:
But since update from 1.6.4 to 1.6.5 it doesn't work anymore. It just keeps asking for the passphrase on and on without any error messages.
I noticed that, if I mount a usb drive and move the header from memory to the drive, then attempt to open again with the exact same command (below) it works:
# cryptsetup open --header header.img --type luks /dev/sda4 lvm
So, the difference is just where the header.img file is placed. For now, I have downgraded back to 1.6.4 to keep my boot setup simpler.
I rather use the header image inside initramfs if possible instead of having to mount a usb at boot just to read the header.
Does anyone know if that's intended for not working anymore or if it's a bug?
Thanks,
Henrique Abreu
