I've read around elsewhere and the solution is as simple as issuing the following command as root:
mkdir /dev/.static/dev/mapper ** Description changed: Binary package hint: cryptsetup I have similar behaviour to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cryptsetup/+bug/105266. My setup: /dev/sda9 = swap /dev/sda10 = boot partition /dev/sda11 = temp partition, to be encrypted backup space. /dev/sda12 = encrypted root (AES/XFS) /dev/sda13 = encrypted home (AES) My /etc/crypttab specifies the appropriate locations, correct ciphers, initramfs generates correctly. I reboot. After a short delay I'm prompted with the root partition password (Enter LUKS Passphrase). This works successfully. Then the swap is mounted, then home passphrase come up. I get the following: Enter LUKS passphrase: Unable to make device node for 'temporary-cryptsetup-XXXX' Failed to read from key storage Command failed. Where XXXX is a different number each time. I can boot into the root partition but must log in as root as I have no /home. I can't mount /dev/sda13 via devmapper once in the encrypted disk, although it does successfully work from the LiveCD so the encrypted partition is OK. I noted the problems experienced here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cryptsetup/+bug/85640 and have no problems - I do get the prompt for the passphrase - beyond this it falls over.
