For a while my Ubuntu hasn't been booting anymore as it tells me to update the microcode. I've asked about it here but wasn't able to resolve it. I had my hard drive encrypted so I've decided to focus on just saving the data I have on there. This means I am trying to access a luks-encrypted partition using a live usb and running into a lot of problem.
- when I open GParted to look at the partition it tells me
The driver descriptor says the physical block size is 2048 bytes, but
Linux says it is 512 bytes.
so far, I have followed most instructions on this thread
sudo cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sda3 myvolume
