Please don't top-post.

I haven't set up any encrypted filesystems myself, but my understanding
is that the initramfs can boot using such filesystems.  I would
imaging that this would require an unencrypted /boot to load the
kernel and initramfs, but this could be on LVM as well as the
encrypted rootfs.

Roger
