I encrypted the hard disk of my Dell D810 when installing 15.10 and it's

cryptsetup: sda5_crypt set up successfully
It then proceeds to boot normally without error. My disk layout is:

As it works, it's not really important, but I'm curious to know why it
thinks it's an unknown fstype when it clearly isn't. It's also a message
which would obviously cause a newcomer to get worried, which is usually
A Bad Thing...

I wonder if it's related in any way to an error seen during login relating to
an error in setting up /swap? In all recent installs, I've gotten cryptswap
errors after boot during login. Just out of curiosity, do you have /swap
available? E.g.,
free -m
Any "missing" partitions? What do you see in fstab?
