1) make sure "dislocker" is installed
2) Next, we are going to create a Folder so we can mount the Drive.
sudo mkdir /media/bitlocker
sudo mkdir /media/mount
3) find your disk - sudo fdisk -l
4) Now we are going to use Dislocker to Decrypt the Drive. Make sure to
replace -uYourPassword
with your password and
sde1 with your drive description! But leave the -u in front of it. So if your password is Horseradish the command should call:
-uHorseradish . Alternatively, just leave it at
-u and you will get prompted for the password.
sudo dislocker -r -V /dev/sde1 -uYourPassword – /media/bitlocker
5) Mount your drive
sudo mount -r -o loop /media/bitlocker/dislocker-file /media/mount
You should be able to open it
You can also make a script file to open it
need to create a new file in our
/usr/local/bin path, so you can access the script from everywhere.
sudo gedit /usr/local/bin/unlock.sh
Go ahead and paste the script into your Text File. Make sure you adjust it to your own Drive Letters etc.
#!/bin/bash
sudo dislocker -r -V /dev/sde1 -u – /media/bitlocker
sudo mount -r -o loop /media/bitlocker/dislocker-file /media/mount
Code language: JavaScript (javascript)
Save the File by hitting CTRL+S. Adjust the permission to make the File executable:
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/unlock.sh
So the next time you restart and need to access your USB Drive again, simply open a Terminal and type:
sudo unlock.sh
Code language: CSS (css)
And you will need to enter your Sudo Password and your Bitlocker Password and your Drive will be unlocked and automatically mounted.
