Is there a way to bypass LUKS and get a machine booted?

[Bill Davidsen]

I'm trying to upgrade the IPv6 config on a machine. I have the root password, 
but not the password for LUKS to unlock the /home. Since I don't need /home, and 
it would take a bunch of time to freshen my DOE clearance, is there some way to 
tell LUKS to skip mounting /home and just come up with boot and root?

Yes, I tried the obvious, having someone bring up the machine, unmount /home, 
and then commenting out the /home in /etc/fstab (tried noauto first). Didn't 
help. Yes I did it in the boot fstab too. More didn't help.
