Re: [dm-crypt] Header corrupted?

[Arno Wagner <arno@wagner.name>]

Hi Sumaya,

that looks like you have a LUKS container on the raw disk.
Not a problem in itself, just a bit unusual. The luksDump
info looks fine. 

You can still have a problem in the key-slot. To check for 
that, please compile and run the keyslot-checker and post 
its output here. If it finds something, also post the output
with option -v, unless that is too long.

You find it in misc/keyslot_ckecker in the source-package. 
It will look for areas of possible corruption in the keyslots.

Regards,
Arno
