I also have the same problem. I installed CDE, encrypted all my drives with usb option. Restarted and I get the enter password prompt. I have the USB key inserted and type in the password. The screen stays on the password prompt and doesn't do anything. I then remove the USB key and reinsert it. The computer moves from the password screen and gives me a blank screen. Nothing happens and I cannot boot the computer. I wiped the OS drive and reinstalled the os after unplugging the power on my other drives and was able to get the OS working. I installed CDE again in an attempt to remove the encryption from my other drives so I could get to the data. I plugged in the other drives and rebooted. I was able to start CDE and it told me that drives had changed and asked to reboot. After the reboot...I encounter the enter password prompt with the same results.
Please Help!!!
How can I get my data back from the other drives?
This is complete garbage...is there a recovery cd option where if we still have the USB key and the password we can boot to the cd and remove the encryption?
