Seems like something's broken on your system. Am I correct, that you try to unlock the encrypted partition by using the prompt that occurs automatically when you insert the USB flash drive? Which desktop environment to you use (Gnome/KDE/XFCE/LXDE/...)? The error message »Failed to execute child process "cryptsetup" (No such file or directory)« indicates that the cryptsetup binary is not found on your system. Are you sure, that the cryptsetup package is installed on the system at all? Please try the following commands in a terminal and send us the output: # dpkg -l cryptsetup cryptsetup-bin # whereis cryptsetup And with the USB flash drive in question plugged in: # sudo cryptsetup --debug luksOpen /dev/sdb2 sdb2_crypt_test Cheers jonas
