By "preboot" do you mean from the boot loader? > When entering my passphrase after being prompted to do so it tells me that > pbkdf_decrypt failed. This issue persists.

As far as I can see, 'pbkdf_decrypt' does not exist in the source tree. The closest would probably have been the old boot loader which had 'pbkdf2 failed' - from 2016 onwards it is 'pkcs5_pbkdf2 failed' or 'bcrypt_pbkdf failed'. > I don't have time right now to debug this problem.

My best guess is that you're trying to unlock newer softraid crypto volumes that are using bcrypt_pbkdf, with a very old boot loader that does not support this and thinks that it is pkcs5_pbkdf. > Best regards, > > Stephan >
