Some rough guesses to get you started: |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
1. Keyboard layout specific passphrase? Do you use a non-american |
| 27 |
keyboard layout? Maybe it has not been loaded at the time you enter the |
| 28 |
passphrase. |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
2. Check that all necessary components (hash algorithm, block cipher, |
| 31 |
encryption algorithm) are compiled into the new kernel. |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
Hope this helps, |
