Yeah, you'll have to help understand what you did precisely, since I tested ciphered LVM not so long ago, and that went fine. You could use d-i (e.g. rc1 images) in rescue mode, go as far as detecting disks, being prompted for the passphrase (d-i should detect the encrypted disk/partition and ask its passphrase accordingly); then extracting logs would be nice, but you should be able to install cryptsetup and/or to regenerate your initramfs. The following commands should help you get started, once you have started a shell chrooted in that partition: apt-get install cryptsetup update-initramfs -u -k all (You don't seem to have a separate /boot partition; otherwise it would be a good idea to mount it, so that the updated initramfs lands in the right directory/partition/disk.) Mraw, KiBi.
