Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: hal
If the passphrase of a LUKS encrypted partition contains the backslash
character, hal-luks-setup-linux returns a "Bad password" message, you
have to type the passphase escaping the backslash (i.e., if your
password is abc\123, you have to type abc\\123).
The "read password" in the hal-luks-setup-linux script should be "read
-r password".
I verified this on hal 0.5.8.1-4ubuntu12 (Feisty)
** Affects: hal (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: Unconfirmed
