LUKS+LVM: No password prompt at boot

[nrs]

I've migrated from an Arch Linux installation, I have an existing luks+lvm encrypted setup I've reused. Unfortunately I could not use the alternate installer so I had to install from the desktop version, so that probably has something to do with it.

I managed to install successfully, but the problem is described in the title. I'm not prompted for my luks password at boot and after I assume it timesout I'm dumped to the initramfs and I have to manually type:

cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/blah weee
lvm vgchange -a y
exit

After which the boot process continues and I'm greeted by GDM.

I've tried running

update-initramfs -k all -c. The result is:
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.35-23-generic-pae
cryptsetup: WARNING: invalid line in /etc/crypttab -
cryptsetup: WARNING: invalid line in /etc/crypttab -

Here is my /etc/crypttab:

wooger UUID=2cde028f-d9c4-4984-a1c3-18f5082 none luks

I've tried doing it by UUID and /dev/devicename.

I've also tried removing the splash option from grub to no effect.

Remove luks at the end of the line you have.

I have the same problem since a major upgrade. Is there any solution yet known?

I tried purging and re-installing all relevant components and checked the whole configuration. Everything looks ok to me.

I've run into this problem as well. I moved my LVM in a LUKS partition to a new LUKS partition on RAID and edited crypttab, but I don't get prompted.

When I get dumped to the initramfs shell the RAID array is already running, so the cryptsetup luksOpen, lvm vgchange, exit works to resume booting. I haven't figured out how to change the order in which these things happen automatically.
