| Hi all on this list, after reading the faq, I suppose I am out of luck and "one of those cases", but I will take the liberty to ask for help still, before I format my luks drive... my fully LUKS encrypted disk is failing to decrypt since two days ago. I am 100% confident the password is entered correctly, yet I get "no key with this passphrase available". Previously, Debian (8) was acting up on the last proper boot where I could still decrypt the drive (changed wallpaper, keyboard strokes incorrect, so when I typed >l< the result was >sl< and such, pressing T would open a new terminal, Q opened up some KDE specific settings …) I thus restarted the laptop and the issue started directly after that reboot, when using the internal keyboard as well as on multiple USB keyboards on multiple USB ports. I booted into a live usb from debian 8.6 and try to unlock the disk as follows: user@debian:~$ sudo apt-get install cryptsetup lvm2 cryptsetup: WARNING: failed to detect canonical device of aufs cryptsetup: WARNING: could not determine root device from /etc/fstab Warning: /sbin/fsck.aufs doesn't exist, can't install to initramfs, ignoring. live-boot: core filesystems devices utils udev wget blockdev. user@debian:~$ sudo modprobe dm-crypt user@debian:~$ sudo cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sda5 crypt1 Enter passphrase for /dev/sda5: No key available with this passphrase. Again, my confidence into the passphrase is 100% (I verified keyboard layout in some random text file, I thus can rule out typos and layout). I took a hex dump of the disk (sda5) as suggested in a thread with a failed partition resize (I am not familiar with hexdump at all and only add it in the hope it might prove useful): 00000000 4c 55 4b 53 ba be 00 01 61 65 73 00 00 00 00 00 |LUKS....aes.....| 00000010 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 |................| 00000020 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 78 74 73 2d 70 6c 61 69 |........xts-plai| 00000030 6e 36 34 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 |n64.............| 00000040 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 73 68 61 31 00 00 00 00 |........sha1....| 00000050 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 |................| 00000060 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 10 00 00 00 00 40 |...............@| 00000070 2a e2 25 b4 eb ec 89 d5 ff 04 36 17 c4 a6 86 c1 |*.%.......6.....| 00000080 23 14 05 d2 d9 63 b5 17 38 51 c9 f7 e5 bf 87 ea |#....c..8Q......| 00000090 56 fa a9 93 71 f1 19 0d fe c6 51 ea d8 64 5a 3e |V...q.....Q..dZ>| 000000a0 68 97 51 5b 00 01 38 80 34 36 36 39 33 66 38 34 |h.Q[..8.46693f84| 000000b0 2d 65 64 63 66 2d 34 66 66 39 2d 38 39 64 66 2d |-edcf-4ff9-89df-| 000000c0 37 38 64 36 32 61 39 32 62 36 66 33 00 00 00 00 |78d62a92b6f3....| 000000d0 00 ac 71 f3 00 05 38 e5 72 3c b6 82 b3 33 a7 f6 |..q...8.r<...3..| 000000e0 5a 55 f9 3d 6b f3 8c b8 d9 6a 66 31 9e 03 b1 57 |ZU.=k....jf1...W| 000000f0 b9 bf 00 5d d7 4a dd c9 00 00 00 08 00 00 0f a0 |...].J..........| 00000100 00 00 de ad 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 |................| 00000110 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 |................| 00000120 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 02 00 00 00 0f a0 |................| 00000130 00 00 de ad 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 |................| 00000140 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 |................| 00000150 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 03 f8 00 00 0f a0 |................| 00000160 00 00 de ad 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 |................| 00000170 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 |................| 00000180 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 05 f0 00 00 0f a0 |................| 00000190 00 00 de ad 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 |................| 000001a0 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 |................| 000001b0 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 07 e8 00 00 0f a0 |................| 000001c0 00 00 de ad 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 |................| 000001d0 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 |................| 000001e0 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 09 e0 00 00 0f a0 |................| 000001f0 00 00 de ad 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 |................| Does this look like a effed crypt header (of which I, naturally, don't have a backup - even though I can honestly say that, as far as I know, I did not do anything to the header … ) or is there any hope left (there is no second keyslot in use) Thanks ever so much for any word of advice, Zero |
