seems like you forgot to attach the initramfs image.

i strongly believe that the problem is a misconfiguration on your side.
otherwise other users of encrypted rootfs would have run into the same
issue. please check any custom changes you made to /etc/initramfs-tools
and /etc/modprobe.d. also, you could apply the attached patch to
/usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-top/cryptroot and regenerate
the initramfs afterwards in order to get some debugging output in the
boot process.

greetings,
 jonas
