I'll start by saying im pretty new to linux so be gentle. My best friend passed but before he did he gifted me his old laptop. Now i've lost the passphrase but am able to get a shell through the Debian vulnerability.of holding enter for 30 seconds.

Now my question is can I pull the hashed passphrase from the luks header?
I'd ideally like to get all the data back some how. pictures, projects etc..
Any help would be greatly appreciated
