It seems that the function grub_getpassword() has problems with numbers coming from the numpad. I added some debugging printfs to the luks code and found out that the passphrase variable always contained an empty string. I then investigated the problem further and found out that it also happens if I place the password 12345 in the grub.cfg: ## set superuser="foo" password foo 12345 ## I can only edit a boot entry if I enter 12345 *NOT* via the num pad. This seems to be a bug in grub_password_get() or one of the functions it calls, like grub_getkey().
