panic story time: updated yesterday. after the update, reboot. full disk encryption doesn't accept my password anymore. fuck. full panic mode. already searching for an usb stick to get a clean install, although it may take a couple of hours to get the machine back into a working state.
luckily my colleague knew what was going on. i had special characters in my password and after the update, the keyboard layout changed from german to english.
- jopsen 8y agoThe disk encryption seems very robust. I encrypted my external hard drive with LUKS and plugging it into old Linux installs just work :) So I wouldn't panic before trying it with a usb stick..
