I've got a 30 GB USB HD on which I am attempting to install Fedora 9.
I've got Fedora 8 running on the box's main HD, and I'm just attempting
to take F9 for a test drive before upgrading. The install goes
smoothly, but when I reboot I get this:
Enter LUKS passphrase for /dev/sdb2:
I enter the passphrase, and then I get this:
Command failed: No key available with this passphrase.
However, if I boot off the install media again, and go into rescue mode,
I am able to mount the encrypted partitions on the USB drive just fine.
So my question is this: Is it possible to boot off an encrypted
partition on a USB drive?
Thanks
Mike
