hello
i have installed my system with full-disk encryption.
normally i find that i have to provide my password for the disk during boot.
this has worked fine for many years when i have used various version of Ubuntu/LinuxMint
i have now updated my kernel and i find that my system drops into a prompt that states:
since there is no longer a prompt for decrypting my disk, i figure that something went wrong while updating the Kernel.
so the question is:
how can i fix this problem?
as this disk is enrypted there is no way that i can access my data inside this partition.
YES the system is fully back-up! i have burned myself in the past (and learnt)
so could i please ask some instructions for Dummies
It seems to be that a few people are suffering this problem:
bug 1003309
please let me know if further info is required,
with regards,
Nicolas
