how to rescue LUKS partitions?












1















After renumbering partitions the encrypted partitions could not be accessed:



cryptsetup open /dev/sda6 my_luka
wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda6, missing codepage or helper program, or other error.



Then using dd to restore the MBR backup taking before the renumbering, no work. Then rebuild the partition with its original position using fdisk, no work. Then I repeated the same process 10 times more, now I'm here and ask do I have chance to save LUKS partitions?
