[SOLVED] Can't unlock my encrypted LVM partition

uc_mvini · 2017-12-14 22:19:57

Hello everyone.

Everytime I try to unlock my encrypted LVM partition but without success. It's shows a output in virtual console: No key available with this passphrase.

Serious, I'm inserting the correct passphrase. Totally sure! I've tried to decrypt my LVM partition on Archiso but without success too. What's happening? I think it's a upgrade error with one or some kbd packages but is strange, because I can't decrypt my entire partition in my Archiso. Anyone can help me to solve this problem?

Cheers.

Keymap?

Not a Pacman issue, moving to NC...

The problem of the passphrase is a incorrect insertion of Shift + Num 2 (@) in keymap br-abnt2 on my correct passphrase. Just a simple mistake. I suspected with this part of passphrase and simple added only Num 2 and my disk unlocked. That's mean I put the wrong passphrase compared to the password that was in my mind.

After resolving the problem, I changed the passphrase using this command: cryptsetup luksAddKey /path/to/device --keyfile-size <value>; and the command was committed.

Sorry for the mistake, but from this mistake, it appeared a possible resolution for others people.

Grateful.
