I don't think that the two have to be the same, unless you made them the same. |

In any case 'cryptsetup -y luksAddKey /dev/sdaX' allows you to add a |
| 21 |
passphrase in another slot - can't recall how many passphrase slots are there |
| 22 |
without looking into it. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
Reboot to make sure it works and then use luksDelKey 0, to remove the previous |
| 25 |
key from slot 0. |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
Also, check gnome-disk-utility which I think allows you to change the |
| 28 |
passphrase. |

I don't use gnome or luks at the moment, so someone with recent experience |
| 40 |
should chime in and put me right. |
