Can't access encrypted Volume from Lithium [SOLVED]

I tries to Clonezilla my 520SSD Drive to a 1 TB SSD drive and something went wrong, when laterOn GParted the final result to take genefit of all the space. (the clonezilla part went well).

I then reinstall BS Lithium onto the 1000 GB (Samsing evo 860, DAMN Fast !!)

When trying to access the old SSD drive, I am being prompted for the password (remember it's encrypted) but can't access it.

If I boot with a USB Stick with Linux Mint, I can click the older SSD drive, am prompted for the password and then have access to the files.

From within Mint, I was able to copy my ~ folder

My question :

any guess why BS Lithium can't open the encrypted installation and Mint can ? (BTW it's my Lithium I used for the last few months)

Tks !

THE ERROR IS : " Error unlocking /dev/sdb3: The function 'bd_cyrpto_luks_open_blob' called but not implemented" I saw some article on the net, but solutions didn't worked for me. ( sudo apt install libblockdev-crypto2 )

it seem that installing sudo apt install libblockdev-crypto2 and rebooting fixed it
