Hey so iam fairly new to hashcat and cracking overall,
i created a fully encrytped The-Distribution-Which-Does-Not-Handle-OpenCL-Well (Kali) Linux in 2017-2019 which i dont know my password to anymore.
Now i tried to watch some youtube videos and read the hashcat wiki to get started but i have some problems i cant really get ahead of.
So i first created a Virtual Box with another The-Distribution-Which-Does-Not-Handle-OpenCL-Well (Kali) to try and crack this Luks encryption but since a Virtual box cant use my GPU power i would rather try to crack it on my Windows.
The problem here is since its a real hard disk not just a file i dont know how to tell hashcat to just crack the harddisk, in Windows atleast.
In my Virtual Box The-Distribution-Which-Does-Not-Handle-OpenCL-Well (Kali) Linux i can go with
when i try the same with Windows it always tells me "no such file or directory"
now i tried to copy the header of the Luks partition to transfer it to my windows but iam not really that good with Linux and iam not sure where i can even find the copy of the header.
I have also created a second new LUKS full disk encryption on an old hard drive to try and crack that so that i would atleast know how the process looks if i correctly crack an encryption. But since i cant tell windows hashcat how to do that iam still lost.
Now to the password problem. I know the password is between 13 to 16 characters long and i know atleast 7 of these characters to 100%. That would leave 6 to 9 characters to crack from which i also think i could narrow the characters down since i fairly know what i used. I think i should be able to do that but i cant seem to get it done.
I have already used a mask attack but iam not sure if iam doing something wrong or if my memory about the passcode is that lost. I also know that i used every character only one time so in the whole passcode for example there is only one "a" etc. I tried to find a rule in the wiki for something like that but i couldnt manage to find one.
My hope is that someone here could help me who knows his way better around then me.
Thanks in advance
