What I find interesting is that I too am using luks-device-mapping-with-options
and my system boots just fine.  So I wonder what the difference is.  Could you
share your system configuration please?  Or at least the relevant parts (I
assume at least bootloader, file-systems and mapped-devices fields)?

I would like to properly understand the problem here and why it works for me.

Thanks,
Tomas Volf
