> Then, either do this at the end after the installer has run, or boot
into a live CD environment (e.g. Kubuntu) and do:

The many steps given there are not really necessary. If you installed
without downloading updates the following steps should be easier:

1. The first boot after the installation will not succeed, but give you a 
busybox shell from initramfs.
1. In that shell give the cryptsetup command as given above.
1. Exit the shell using Ctrl-D.
1. The boot will now complete.
1. Create the /etc/crypttab file. Typically you can just copy it from your 
previous root file system.
1. Update the system using apt or whatever you use. Unless you do this 
immediately when the installer image was built there will be updates that 
recreate the initramfs. The recreated initramfs will contain your new 
/etc/crypttab.
1. Reboot.
1. It works!
