Thanks for the report. Let’s address the initrd/boot issue first.

Any message after entering the password prompt?

It looks like ‘cryptsetup open’ simply failed, and ‘boot-system’
currently ignores that error, so it goes up to the file system check as
shown above, which in turn fails and gets us to the debugger.
Perhaps you could try running ‘cryptsetup’ by hand from the REPL.
That’s going to be a bit tedious; something like:
(use-modules (srfi srfi-1) (ice-9 ftw))
(define cs (find (lambda (file)
(string-contains file "cryptsetup"))
(scandir "/gnu/store")))
(system* (string-append "/gnu/store/" cs "/bin/cryptsetup")
"open" "--type" "luks" "/dev/whatever" "main")
Then, please report the return value of ‘system*’, and check
(file-exists? "/dev/mapper/main")
Please also report any messages.
Thanks in advance!
Ludo’.
