Bug Description

By an installation of Xubuntu 12.10 beta 2 I enabled the disc encryption check box.

After the installation, I've to input the Password at the boot screen.
So far so good.

But the Password does not work.

I bet it has something to do with the keyboard layout. I'm useing a German keyboard and I've special characters in my password.

I would if I could,
but my disc is completely encrypted and my password don't work (see bug description).
(and in my other bug, the installer managed the bug report)
So I've no choice.
