I've just installed Lithium. It doesn't mount my luks encrypted ext4 external hard drive. I have tried each of the 3 options (forget immediately, remember until logout, remember forever) without success.
fdisk -l shows me this:
Disk /dev/sdb: 931.5 GiB, 1000204883968 bytes, 1953525164 sectors
Disk model: External USB 3.0
Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes

A bit more info: Instead of Thunar, I've installed PCManFM. It won't mount it either, but it gives me this error message:
Error unlocking /dev/sdb: The function 'bd_crypto_luks_open_blob' called, but not implemented!

...and Google gave me a solution!
sudo apt install libblockdev-crypto2
sudo systemctl restart udisks2.service
It works now.

Thanks for this report!
libblockdev-crypto2 is a very small package, so could easily be added to the BunsenLabs default install list. Being able to mount encrypted external drives sounds like a Good Thing.

I encrypt my external drive for the obvious reason - in case it gets lost or stolen.
PCManFM helped as it least it told me what the problem was!
Google did the rest

Nice catch @stroudmw. Wonder if libblockdev-crypto2 should been a recommends or a depends of udisks2.

^Just looked, it is a recommend:
https://packages.debian.org/buster/udisks2
Debian packages in the BL iso are installed without recommends to keep the install size under control, but that means we need to keep an eye open for important packages like this.
