cryptroot volume password? #99

Closed BRENTGAMEZ closed 4 years ago

BRENTGAMEZ commented 4 years ago

keep getting a message saying: - A password is required to access the cryptroot volume: Enter passphrase for /dev/sda2:

but when I try my passwords or other suggestions from the internet I keep getting this message: - No key available with this passphrase. Enter passphrase for /dev/sda2:

???

The password for unlock the cryptroot volume is configured with the variable ROOT_PASSWORD/ROOT_PASSWORD_RETYPE. Take in acount that if you use special characters or some characters that depend on keyboard layout you should set the keyboard layout properly for your keyboard with the variables KEYMAP and KEYLAYOUT.
