I don't have them anymore; I solved by reinstalling / and /home in 2 different partitions with different passwords; in /etc/crypttab there's a rule for taking the password of /home from a file... Not a clean way, but it works. Also, a friend of mine, tried to mount from SysRescue the whole partition; it kept saying "unknown filesystem type" until he used the --offset=SECTORS option... Then, with the right number of sectors, it mounted!
