Other Accessing Linux LVM encrypted partition from FreeBSD

[Grell]

I was wondering if it would be possible to access my Debian, encrypted lvm, ext4 partition from my other hard disk under FreeBSD. From everything I've seen on Google it would appear that this is not possible and my best bet is to use some intermediary disk formatted to vfat or something similar. Is this true or can I access an encrypted Linux disk under FreeBSD? Thanks.

Encrypted with what?

I'm not quite sure, I think it is using Luks. I encrypted it during installation of Debian.

As far I know it is not possible. LUKS is Linux specific while FreeBSD use geli(8) ( and there is no workaround ), however I think DragonflyBSD was support to this.

You can at least in theory run bhyve (VM) and mount it in there but there's no native support in FreeBSD.
