I too have had this problem with a clean install from the 8.04 alternate
install CD.

My systems boots fine but eventually I am dumped into busybox.  If I
boot into recovery mode I see:

cryptsetup: Source disk /dev/disk/by-uuid/<UUID> not found

Rebooting with c-a-d does not help.  I have also tried running
cryptsetup at the busybox prompt but I am new to this (not Ubuntu but to
encrypted root partitions) so I don't know what the correct command
should look like.  cryptsetup doesn't seem to give any error messages
even if the parameters are wrong and when I 'exit' I just get another
busybox prompt.

This is not a critical issue to me at the moment as I am just
experimenting, but something is clearly broken as I just did a vanilla
install of this and it didn't work.  I am not trying anything unusual -
well I am installing this on a USB stick but I have done that about a
hundred times before without any major problems.
