Cryptsetup - problem when booting the Jessie machine
Hi
I use a Jessie machine since approx oct 2016.
LVM + cryptsetup (standard options of the Debian installer).
I've done updates each time it was possible.
I shut up this machine approx in march-may. When i came to boot in in june, i was stuck with cryptsetup :
My passphrase is not ok for cryptsetup.
«No key available for this passphrase.
cryptsetup: cryptsetup failed, bad password or options?»
I'm 100% sure of my passphrase.
I've seen on some forums that a Debian update can sometimes lead to this situation.
I've done nothing on that disk.
i just tried to enter my passphrase assuming the keyboard is qwerty instead of azerty I use. Howerver, I'm not sure I coul enter special and accentuated characters.
Is there a way to make visible the characters of my passphrase when typing it?
Thanks for your help
Regards
Roger
