Yes, but the key is validated through LUKS key digest, if the validation fails, it is never used for the mapping. I do not believe it is a wrong key problem. Also compare "dmsetup table <device>" on both systems for LUKS active device. It should produce exactly the same parameters (mainly offset, size, crypt options). All this looks as a kernel issue unrelated to cryptsetup (note that you have different kernels if you have different distros and the data decryption and fs handling is the kernel). > I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong about this, but I am > _fairly_ certain that there is nothing in the luksOpen/luksClose code > that will change anything in the LUKS header, so something else must > be going on in your case. For LUKS1 is it always true, LUKS2 have two metadata areas, there is autocorrection in place if one area checksum is wrong (happens on the header load) but this is IMO unrelated to this case. (If I understand the mail correctly, the LUKS device can be still activated but the filesystem is corrupted now? If not, we need --debug output from luksOpen command to check what is wrong.) m. _______________________________________________ dm-crypt mailing list dm-crypt@xxxxxxxx https://www.saout.de/mailman/listinfo/dm-crypt
