I finally was able to decrypt my AESpipe encrypted backup files. More
than one backup source was corrupted (bzip2: Data integrity error when
decompressing. tar: Unexpected EOF in archive), but I was able to
recover most of my data!
This really scared me! I haven't been able to sleep very well for
I finally figured out why I cannot access the LVM PV. Ubuntu's
Partitioning Tool overwrote the LUKS header with a new LUKS header. This
is why the LVM PV is not available.
Is there any data carving method that can find the old LUKS header and
restore it, or is all the data in the LVM PV lost for
I recreated the exact same encrypted LVM structure with CentOS and
installed on a test hard drive. I cannot reproduce this problem with
Ubuntu 12.10. The revert on Ubuntu's Partitioning Tool works correctly
in all the followup tests I conducted.
The only thing I can conclude is perhaps corrupted
Ok, I'll close the bug for now. If you do manage to reproduce it,

I can't reproduce this nor fully understand your description. What
makes you think the partition was resized?
FYI, the partition type code does not actually matter. Also e2fsck
isn't going to do any good on the luks device, since it is an lvm pv,
not an ext2 filesystem.

Thanks for the reply. I did not realize at first that Ubuntu's installer
is using GParted for its Partitioning Tool. I will see if someone over
at gparted.sourceforge.net can help me reverse the damage this tool
caused to my partition table.

Phillip,
I replied to Brian Murray before your comment showed up after I
refreshed my screen.
I did nothing in Ubuntu's Partitioning Tool other than try to find a way
to get the installer to recognize Red Hat's partitioning scheme.
