[Bug 1187318] [NEW] Splash skips text when asking for LUKS password

Public bug reported:

When you use full-disk encryption with LVM as per the alternate
installer or the netboot installer, during bootup you are presented with
a text box to enter the HDD encryption password.

On Precise this box was presented with a message to enter the password
for the specified disk by uuid. In raring, this is no longer the case.
There's just the box.

If this is hardware-specific, this was tested on a Dell e6410 laptop.

See the attachment.
