Bug#609558: seems to be a sequencing problem
If I wait until the initramfs drops me into the shell, then run scripts/local-top/cryptroot, then exit the boot process succeeds. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Bug#609558: more info
I poked around a little more and it looks as if things are close to working. The boot process looks like it has hung but if I wait long enough it drops into a shell then I can: cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sdb2 mm177490-pc vgchange -a y mm177490-pc and then "exit" which continues the boot process until I get: Starting early crypto disks...sdb2_crypt (starting) Enter pass phrase to unlock the disk /dev/sdb2(sdb2_crypt): Command failed: cannot access device If I enter the passphrase enough times (same error over and over) then eventually the boot process will succeed. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Tried to do as "vanilla" an install as possible, accepting the defaults where I could. One non-default is that I wrote GRUB to (hd1,0), the USB drive, instead of the default since I didn't want to disturb the primary drive which has an encrypted Windows installation. Everything appeared to go OK but the system can't boot. It reaches the GRUB menu but when GRUB tries to boot the kernel I don't get prompted for a password and I get: Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0xde Kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.26-686 root=/dev/mapper/mm177490--pc-root ro Error 17.
