How to change a Knoppix persistent partition password?

I've installed Knoppix on a USB drive, and it works perfectly fine. During the installation, I've chosen to use the free space on the drive as an encrypted persistent partition. Now, every time during boot (after typing 'Knoppix' and pressing enter), I have to enter this password. Nothing wrong with this per se, but I've come to the conclusion that I would like to change this password.



Is there a way to change this 'login' password (in my case, the line says something like 'Enter your /dev/sda2 password:'), without having to reinstall Knoppix and without having to move/ lose the files that are on that partition?
