+# WARNING: If you use the decrypt_derived keyscript for devices with
+# persistent data (i.e. not swap or temp devices), then you will lose
+# access to that data permanently if something damages the LUKS header
+# of the LUKS device you derive from. The same applies if you luksFormat
+# the device, even if you use the same passphrase(s). A LUKS header
+# backup, or better a backup of the data on the derived device may be
+# a good idea. See the Cryptsetup FAQ on how to do this right.
