Hey guys,

I just proceeded from 9.10 to 10.4 LTS lucid, after not upgrading for 2.5 years, I was about to proceed to the latest version.
I decided to keep the old grub, for I made a whole-disk-encryprtion and wanted to keep the settings. I dont know if this is the problem with lvm problem adressed in the lucid release notes. I think I installed the new kernel but Im not sure here.
Anyway the result of this installation is, that
When I boot, the display where Im supposed to put in the LVM/luks password is showing up, but when I put it in, it keeps saying - cryptsetup failed, bad password or options -
It is the correct pass, the release note said sth. about changing the UUID in the fstab with the actual name of the hd, but since the display where Im supposed to put in the LVM/luks password is showing up at boot, I dont know if this problem is related.
so it actually could be a kernel, fstab, or grub problem.
I got know idea how to handle this.
suggestions would be highly appreciated.
anyone, how can I proceed ???
