Same problem installing 12.04 as RAID -> LUKS -> LVM on a Tyan S2865 with an nVidea GF-7900GT video card.

I did as suggested in #28 and the disk decryption/password screen/box appeared. I was able to mount disks and log in. I installed the proprietary drivers, and on next boot I went right to the password screen, but there was no password box, just a text input line, and the font was large with the text overwriting itself. I then did as in #24, copying the fonts to /boot/grub, but on next boot my LCD kept saying "Out of Range" and I couldn't find any way to log in. (^Alt-Fn didn't work, ^Alt-Del forced reboot.)
