Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: cryptsetup
Ubuntu 8.10 Alpha 5, i386:
The following steps result in a misleading cryptsetup error message:
* Boot from LiveCD
* Become root: sudo su -
* Install cryptsetup: apt-get cryptsetup
* Open a LUKS device:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sdb1 crypt_rally2
Enter LUKS passphrase:
Command failed: No key available with this passphrase.
Actually the supplied password was correct but kernel module dm_crypt is not
loaded in this scenario.
* modprobe dm_crypt
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sdb1 crypt_rally2
Enter LUKS passphrase:
key slot 1 unlocked.
Command successful.
Maybe there is a chance to give the user a hint what is really going
wrong.
