Hi all,
I have a Linux Mint with full disk encryption (one big partition). For the last couple of days (~ 5 days) I did not shutdown the laptop and only closed the lid. Today I had a restart (probably updates were downloaded in the meantime) and my passphrase does not work anymore. I tried to debug with an ubuntu live usb.
here are the commands that i've tried so far:
I've also tried with LANG=C and LANG=en_US. I've tried from a script: echo -n 'xxx' | iconv -f utf-8 -t us-ascii | cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sda3 sda3_crypt
I've tried a script to brute force the passphrase (I am desperate and maybe I've suddenly forgot the passphrase after 8 months of writing it almost every day). I've tried to brute force the values of the keys that I press (I still remember how I press the keys mechanically).
What do you guys suggest to try now? Do you think that the header is damaged?
Thx, Vali
