Lubuntu 16.04 splash does not query encryption password

[Hadmut Danisch]

Hi,

just freshly installed Lubuntu 16.04 AMD64 from today's brandnew release.

Installation run's smoothly, but after reboot and grub menu, the system just hangs forever in a dark blue empty screen.

Solution: replacing splash with nosplash in the boot kernel parameters (grub command line editing), system then boots normally and first of all asks for the encryption passwords. I have both the swap and /root partition encrypted.

So obviously there's something wrong with querying passwords if the splash option is selected (as usual after installation).
