[Bug 1387107] Re: boot hangs for no way to enter password for encrypted LVM
Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer
to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest
v3.18 kernel[0].
If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following
tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'.
If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag:
'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'.
If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'.
Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as "Confirmed".
Thanks in advance.

Title:
boot hangs for no way to enter password for encrypted LVM
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Problem Description
=======================
VNC booting Ubuntu hangs after:
[ 0.774027] /build/buildd/linux-3.16.0/drivers/rtc/hctosys.c: unable to open rtc device (rtc0)
due to no way to enter the password for an encrypted device. It occurs for an installation with the device encryption selected. Without encryption, the warning message still appears, but the booting can continue till login prompt.
Work Around: If selecting Recovery Mode quickly to boot, then there is
the chance to enter a password and bring up the system.
However, at the booting menu, if your hand is too slow, then the
terminal mode will be toggled to somewhat unknown. Then the <Enter>
key will not work, nor do the upper case letters. You have to type
Ctrl+M (alternative of <Enter> with normal TERM setting) to get in
"Advanced options for Ubuntu", but still end up unable to provide the
correct password if it contains any upper case letters.
