Oh sorry, yes - you need to also run 'sudo update-initramfs -u' to update
the plymouth theme in the initramfs.

If you do that, do you still get the blank screen?  And if you hit the arrow
twice (btw, Esc also works), do you get the Ubuntu theme?

Title:
  Lubuntu Install (entire disk with encryption) doesn't prompt for disk
  password.

Status in “plymouth” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  When installing the lubuntu image as part of the iso testing
  (lubuntu/daily/20120327/precise-alternate-amd64.iso) using the
  alternate installer from the daily builds for March 27, 2012, I
  attemted to make a full-disk encrypted setup using LVM.  I used the
  instructions from the isotesting testcase:
  http://testcases.qa.ubuntu.com/Install/AlternateEncryptedLvm

  The install went perfectly.  However, when I rebooted, the system hung
  on a blank screen.  I left it for over half an hour, and no response.
  At this point, I simply typed in the password for the LVM encryption,
  and the system then continuted to boot normally.

  After getting into the system, I tested it (everything was working
  fine) then rebooted.  I experienced the same symptoms (just a blank
  screen) after each boot.

  I believe that there is supposed to be a screen prompting the user for the password for the LVM encryption instead of just a blank screen.
