- recover the first 512 bytes of the container and use it as a "hash"; next, select the correct Veracrypt-'legacy' mode and run your job
- or, use the provided veracrypt2hashcat script on your container; this will give a "$veracrypt$..." formatted hash; next, select the correct Veracrypt-mode and run your job
Double-check that you selected the correct mode! (depending on legacy or not, and what encryption/hashing algorithm you choose during set-up)
If I selected the wrong mode, and even the wordlist contains the password, hashcat will not crack the password, right?
