    Luks Nuke doesn't work.

    Hi, i got this problem today and i can't solve it, i was searching on the internet but nothing:

    Code:
    root@kali:/dev# cryptsetup luksAddNuke /dev/sda
    Device /dev/sda is not a valid LUKS device.
    root@kali:/dev# cryptsetup luksAddNuke /dev/sda1
    Device /dev/sda1 is not a valid LUKS device.
    root@kali:/dev# cryptsetup luksAddNuke /dev/sda2
    Device /dev/sda2 is not a valid LUKS device.
    root@kali:/dev# cryptsetup luksAddNuke /dev/sda5
    Device /dev/sda5 is not a valid LUKS device.
    root@kali:/dev# ls | grep sda
    sda
    sda1
    sda2
    sda5
    root@kali:/dev# cat /proc/partitions
    major minor  #blocks  name
    
       8        0  488386584 sda
       8        1  480232448 sda1
       8        2          1 sda2
       8        5    8151040 sda5
      11        0    1048575 sr0
    root@kali:/dev#

    Did you encrypt your hard drive first using LVM when installing Kali Linux? You need to have an encrypted hard drive first before Luks Patch can work
