Unless I did something really stupid I would swear that I upgraded fully
encrypted laptop running 5.8 to 5.9 easier. 

I downloaded bsd.rd for 5.9 and put into /. Then I rebooted the laptop.
When prompted for boot password and entered it. Then I booted from
bsd.rd and chose the upgrade option. When upgrade manager asked me what
is the installation disk I pointed it to the crypto disk. In my case
physical device is

/dev/sd0

and crypto device is /dev/sd1

No softraid passwords were needed. After upgrade was finished I booted
into 5.9 and did usual sysmerge, cleaning files and upgrading packages.

Best,
Predrag
